Description William Jon McCann 2008-03-26 18:40:36 UTC 
AFAICT, currently, if we want to lock-down the desktop's handling of URLs we
have to try to figure out all the possible keys to lockdown via
/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/*.  It would be useful to have a
/desktop/gnome/lockdown/disable_url_handlers key that would disable them all.

gnome-vfs got deprecated in 2008.

gnome-vfs is not under active development anymore and had its last code changes
in 2011. Its codebase has been archived:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/gnome-vfs/commits/master

gio (in glib) and gvfs are its successors. See https://developer.gnome.org/gio/stable/ch33.html and https://people.gnome.org/~gicmo/gio-migration-guide/ for porting info.

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect
reality. Feel free to open a task in GNOME Gitlab if the issue described in this task still applies to a recent + supported version of glib/gio/gvfs. Thanks!
