gtkplacesview: connect on recent server selection (858 bytes, patch)

Description romu 2016-02-18 09:39:11 UTC 
Hi,
Small enhancement to make Nautilus even more efficient.

Use case: connect to an external server
1. Click on "+ Other Locations"
2. Type or choose an address in the "Connect to server" field
3. Click on "Connect" to effectively start the connection

Why this last step? My suggestion is when the user chooses a server address in the list, the connection should be initiated immediately. This would remove the need to click on "Connect".

gtkplacesview: connect on recent server selection

Currently, selecting a recent server only populates the URI entry.
Connecting to it as well is more efficient.

> Why this last step?
It may be useful to edit URI before connecting. See bug 753550 for an example.
