Public bug reported:
Unlike most other programs in which open file dialog lists (to the left)
mounted filesystems, firefox does not. The mounted share can be selected
by going in home folder, -> showing hidden files-> selecting .gvfs
-selecting the mounted share. If this is by design (not to allow mounted
shares) then we shouldn't be able to select any .gvfs directory also.
This also affects pages with forms in which we have to attach a file.
(We cannot attach a file scanned and saved in an open common samba
shared directory.)
