From Bugzilla Helper:


When using Tree view, and clicking on any Nautilus link file (ie Services,
Computer, Netscape links in the Nautilus dir) causes a dialog box saying:
"Couldn't display '/home/pezking/Services"(or whatever file it happened to be),
because Nautilus cannot handle items of type "Nautilus link".

* REPRODUCIBLE: Always

* STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

Click on a Nautilus link file in tree view

* ACTUAL RESULTS: 

 "Cannot handle item type" dialog displays

* EXPECTED RESULTS: 

  Link should of openned in the right pane or started the program it links to

After testing a few other files types, I've noticed it will do the same with MP3
files and with Excel files with the extention .xls

This is reproducible for me as well. I tried some of the other file types, (rpm,
etc, but they didn't do it)

One problem with the design we have for nautilus links is that each type of
directory view has to do explicit work to handle them.

Not required for PR3.

Split off the part about other file types into bug 46242
