Hi, We have a patchset in Nautilus that redesigns the "Connect to Server" dialog. Notable changes are: - the dialog now remembers and keeps track of the servers you connected to in the past (allowing you to remove or clear the list on context menu) - instead of having the dialog construct the URI manually from the various comboboxes/controls, we now use an entry box to type the URI directly. This is more consistent with what other OS use for the same feature - we have now a "Browse" button in the dialog directly
There's a more detailed analysis and screenshots in the bug report [1]. Since in the future we don't want to promote the use of this dialog from out of nautilus, the separate binary for it has been moved to $(libexec), with the idea to remove it completely next cycle. There's an analysis on the impact of this in the bug report, but the short version is that Baobab will probably need a patch to reflect this change (gnome-panel and gnome-shell are also affected, but the former will gracefully handle the binary missing, and we want to remove the Connect to Server launcher from the shell entirely [2]). I think this would be a nice polishing to have for 3.6, and with this mail I request an UI freeze break for the feature. Thanks!
