Re: Connect to Server feature

[<bordoley msu edu>]

Just for the sake of mentioning it. Instead of adding all these different 
favorites type folder uris (network://) why not just create a favorites 
folder (favorites://) (can be used to replace nautilus bookmarks altogether 
actually) which has subfolders, like network places etc.

That way all nautilus favorite locations are accessible from one central 
location instead of ten different uris.

What I'm really getting at is that we need to integrate this feature with 
similar ones (eg. bookmarks) to create a consistent easy to use UI.
