[Shotwell] importing directly from SMB share?

Hi there,

i would like to know if it is planned or already possible to import
Photos directly from a SMB share under Gnome.

I have my photo collection on a NAS device which - under Gnome - i
usually access directly via Nautilus (smb://server/share). Also some
other Gnome-based programs are able to use this directly in the file
open dialog, but unfortunately shotwell is not able to do so when
clicking "import from directory".

Now i don't know much about this transparent integration that nautilus
does, and i would like to know if it would be possible to import photos
directly from there.

I am using shotwell 0.7.2 on Fedora 14.


Thanks a lot


Christian Anton
