State of nautilus-sendto for 3.8



Hi all,

nautilus-sendto has been in a quite broken state for some time now, with many of the plugins not working correctly if at all.
In the long term, I think we should have the concept of a generic DBus "sharing service" API applications can use, but a more short-term solution is to just strip down nautilus-sendto so that its arguably most important feature (sending files by email) is nicely integrated and works correctly (tracked in bug [1]).

This was on our roadmap for 3.6, but it was too late in the cycle back then to make this change. Six months later we're essentially at the same point, and I think it makes sense now to push for this change to be included in the release.

Patches are on the bug report, feedback and comments appreciated.
