It'd be nicer again if the GnomeVFS and KIOSlave frameworks played well 
together, avoiding the need to code to one or another, and reducing 
wasted dupilcate effort. What about a VirtualIO backend with KIOSlave 
and GnomeVFS API layers so that both can share the same capabilities? 
Don't know if it'd be practical, but it'd be awfully nice. Especially if 
the base IO virtualisation layer could be independent of the GNOME and 
KDE libraries, so it could be used for general applications on Linux or 
even other UNIXes.

Just imagine - every app having the /same/ view of the available 
filesystem(s), real and virtual.

Next thing we'd be having consistant file load and save dialog boxes! 
(if only...)
