[Bug 34748] New: Integrate GVFS just like you have integrated CUPS

Bug #: 34748
           Summary: Integrate GVFS just like you have integrated CUPS
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: netapi32
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]
    Classification: Unclassified

Wine already integrates with CUPS to allow applications to print documents 
exactly as they do it in Windows. My proposal is to integrate Wine with GVFS to
let applications automatically mount network shares. In Windows applications
can access network shares by just specifying a path like "//server/share". But
in Wine you first need to manually create a link to
"~/.wine/dosdevices/unc/server/share", and only then all applications will be
able to access this particular server.

Windows XP is dying, and corporations start looking for replacement. Those,
concerned about money, may choose Linux with Wine. Sadly, one of the most used
by corporate software feature - automatically mounted windows shares is not
supported in Wine.

Isn't it Gnome-only? If so I doubt it's a right choice.

@Nikolay Sivov
GVFS can be installed separately. Also KDE Frameworks have similar module
called KIO. So there could be three different backends in Wine:
- one existing for "~/.wine/dosdevices/unc/"
- one for GVFS
- and one for KDE Frameworks KIO
Wine could choose appropriate backend in runtime, if modules it needs are
present in the system.
