Yeah, this is a real problem because the VFS systems are totally separate. I'm not sure there's a good way to fix this. > Instead of finding the application from GNome, using kfmclient solves > the problem in most cases.

Fredrik checked support in for this the other day, but it's only in CVS and not in 0.0.12. Unfortunately I'm not aware of any other distribution which does something like this, so it can't be solved generally right now. If you're not running SUSE or NLD, you'll need to hack the Tile.cs for now like you did.
