Annoying message. Get rid of it!

When performing FTP operations through Nautilus, or through apps that integrate with the File Browser (e.g. like opening or saving to FTP via Gedit) sometimes you'll get an ugly "disconnected from server" message, in which case you press cancel, then try again after a second so the File Browser has had time to re-connect, and the operation will be successful.

Instead of this annoying functionality, the message should be skipped, and Nautilus should wait until the connectiong is re-established, then perform the operation without bothering the user.

Here's a screenshot:

I have to press cancel, then try saving again for it to work. This should instead be one action altogether with no error message. Make Nautilus wait for reconnection if the connection is closed, then save. That way we only have to press save one time only.

-> gvfs

It's not nautilus generating those messages and/or managing the FTP connection, it's the FTP GVfs backend.

Oh ok, i knew it was some type of interface behind the scenes, but i didn't know what exactly so i posted this in nautilus since its a file-manager type of problem.

Can you move it or should i repost it for gvfs?

Wait, nevermind, i see you moved it :)
