Please describe the problem:
This screenshot describes it best: http://img.xrmb2.net/images/242451.png

Don't know if this is a gvfs related problem, though.

This inconsistency hurts my eyes! Google makes "file system" the winner but maybe another term or something user-definable would be a preferred fix? 

Steps to reproduce:

Does this happen every time?

Yeah, we should fix computer:// to say "File System" too. We're in a string freeze now though, and that is a new string in gvfs...

Kinda disagree we should change this. Filesystem is just an alternate spelling, at least Wiktionary and Wikipedia says it's fine

 http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/filesystem
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem

I personally "File System" looks like an eyesore.. and in Palimpsest / gnome-disk-utility / etc. I'm already using "Filesystem" instead of "File System".

Just my two cents.
