Sorry, I misunderstood what you were asking for when I reassigned this to xdg. But still it's not a bug in gvfs. gvfs expects the mailto app to handle the url. It doesn't do any per application specialization like xdg-email does, it just passes the url directly to icedove, so icedove needs to be fixed to handle the attach parameter.
