Title:
  LibreOffice cannot open files on the network (gvfs)

Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I cannot open files on the network from within LibreOffice:
  1. Open LibreOffice Writer
  2. Navigate to somewhere on the network (as connected using "Connect to server...")
  3. Click on any LibreOffice file.
  4. Nothing.

  However, when I make a symbolic link

  ~$ ln -s .gvfs/foo on bar/some_dir test

  I am able to open files using the LibreOffice "Open File" dialog.

  Also, when starting LibreOffice from the command line, it works:

  ~.gvfs/foo on bar/some_dir$ lowriter myfile.odt

  And, doubleclicking a LibreOffice file from Nautilus, works as well.
