Docs team: This means somebody need to completely rewrite
nautilus-connect.page to:
1) Describe how to write the URIs in general.
2) List the available URI schemes and what they're for.
3) Describe how to put details like username, port, folder,
etc. into the URL.

Writing made-up URLs by hand seems like a trip back to 2001
to me. It does mean there's more to document. Who wants to
do it?

What does the Browse button do? Just close the dialog and
take you to the Browse Network location in Nautilus?
