RPM: gedit-2.6.1-1 The gedit "Open File..." dialog includes volumes (sftp) that I have network mounted from nautilus. However, the "Save As..." gtk_file_selector does not include these volumes. I have write access to the volumes as I can click'n'drag files to/from in nautilus. In talking with alex on IRC, it was suggested that the app must set gtk_file_chooser_set_local_only(foo, FALSE) to enable remote files. It appears in gedit/gedit-file-selector-util.c:478 in run_file_selector() gtk_file_chooser_set_local_only (GTK_FILE_CHOOSER (dialog), !enable_vfs); May do this, but I cannot determine what the value of enable_vfs is at this time.
I think this would require to use gnome-vfs in gedit to save files. Otherwise the would show the volumes but would not be able to save in them. This is filed upstream: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=110191
