password dialog screenshots

I have a DiskStation. When I browse to Other Places from nautilus or the file chooser, I see two identical entries in the list, which read "Diskstation (File Sharing)".

I'm guessing that each item represents a different protocol - I get a different password dialog for each one (screenshots attached).

It would be good to differentiate these two entries, so I can tell them apart. I also wonder what use the "(File Sharing)" part of the string is...

bookmarks: remove bookmarks manager

Current bookmark manager is mostly a "show the internals in the UI",
with just showing the properties in a text base way.

Users can already accomplish the key functions of the manager through
the sidebar: you can rename, remove, and reorder through drag and drop.

The only thing you can't do with the sidebar is edit the path of a
bookmark, but I would argue that that's problematic anyway (since you
can break bookmarks that way, and it is much less error-prone to
navigate to the location and bookmark it than hand edit a location
field).

The fact that the only way to open the bookmark manager is through a
keyboard shortcut is probably a sign that it isn't really getting used
anyway, and that it isn't worth the trouble of fixing it up.

So remove it and instead, if needed, focus on improving bookmarks
management in the sidebar.

Comment 3 Matthias Clasen 2018-02-10 05:12:23 UTC 
We're moving to gitlab! As part of this move, we are moving bugs to NEEDINFO if they haven't seen activity in more than a year. If this issue is still important to you and still relevant with GTK+ 3.22 or master, please reopen it and we will migrate it to gitlab.
Comment 4 Matthias Clasen 2018-04-14 23:58:34 UTC 
As announced a while ago, we are migrating to gitlab, and bugs that haven't seen activity in the last year or so will be not be migrated, but closed out in bugzilla.

If this bug is still relevant to you, you can open a new issue describing the symptoms and how to reproduce it with gtk 3.22.x or master in gitlab:
