I specifically want this for Rhythmbox, so that we can open a radio station asynchronously, and then pass the handle to gnomevfssrc inside GStreamer so it can do synchronous reads. This way Rythmbox won't hang until TCP timeout on sites that are down. GnomeVFS already sort-of supports this with gnome_vfs_async_open_as_channel, but I don't want a GIOChannel, I want a GnomeVFSHandle :)
