And there are similar issues with smbfs etc. KDEs kio_smb kind of works,
GNOME has a VFS for smb (but it doesn't work everywhere AFAIK), but I
can't select a file in an smb:// url and have it open in an arbitrary
program (gvim, xmms, GIMP etc).

Windows has done this since Windows95 ...

(and no, I don't mean smbmount, that's like net use, which works in DOS).
