Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gvfs

I found that gvfs can't list hidden files through ftp. I have a ftp server 
which I'm accessing through nautilus (gvfs). The problem is that when I list 
files, there is no hidden file (beginning with .) although these are physically 
on the server.
When I tried list them from the console using "gvfs-ls -h ftp://[EMAIL 
PROTECTED]/", it lists all files except hidden ones.

output of 'gvfs-info ftp://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/.hidden':
Error getting info: File doesn't exist

But when I try to open that file in gedit using 'gedit
ftp://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/.hidden', it is opened without any problems.

It behaves differently against sftp protocol, where hidden files are
listed (when Show Hidden files is checked).
