Description Eike Günther 2014-03-01 21:13:59 UTC 
GVFS doesn't support unix-extensions at the moment. Making it impossible to use with files that contain characters like a ":".

Mangled filenames are not always a satisfying option to solve this, because they make it difficult to distinguish between similarly named files.
Comment 1 Bastien Nocera 2014-03-01 23:07:25 UTC 
It can't be enabled in gvfs because there's no way to turn it on in libsmbclient.
