We absolutely not want all the vfs modules as roots. Thats just crap.
Most of them are seldom used for file-management (fonts:, preferences:
etc), and many are useless as roots (e.g. ftp:, ssh:). However, adding
your own uris is really useful. You can add for instance roots for
remote shares you often use, much like mounting a disk letter in
windows.
