Right now I'm hacking on SSL support and a couple of other things to let
people use gnome-vfs as the best backend for all browser-type applications.
I've got some other ideas my sleeve for the GNOME 2.0 time-frame that I
can't think of right now ;-)

Let me know if you've got some ideas for what we can do to make gnome-vfs
