"Connect to Server" dialog & new panel menu layout

["Vincent Untz" <vincent vuntz net>]

Hi guys,

Since the 2.9.4 release, the panel has a brand new layout for the
menu bar. See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=161613 for
more informations.

I'd like to add a "Connect to Server" button to the menu. This
would open the very same dialog than the one in nautilus. As Mark
commented in the above bug, it's not that great to copy & paste
the code from nautilus.

Thus, I'm left with three possibilities to make this happen:

  1) Move the code from nautilus to the panel
  2) Add a "--connect-server" argument to nautilus
  3) Wait for a libgnomevfsui library

I'm not sure 1) is a great idea since the dialog has its place in
nautilus too. 3) won't happen for 2.10, so I'm left with option 2).

Does adding a "--connect-server" argument to nautilus sound
reasonable?

Thanks,

Vincent
