That sounds right, but what about all the other places where an is_local 
flag is passed into make_thumbnail_uri? Are you sure this is the only one 
that's incorrect?

(side note):

In general, some Nautilus code confuses three separate questions:

    1) Would it be fast to do I/O to this URI, so I can do it sync. 
instead of going out of my way to do it async.?
    2) Does this URI correspond to a file system path?
    3) Is this URI a "local" on in the gnome-vfs sense.

I would like to straighten these out and untangle them as much as possible.
