Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

To reproduce :

Go to nautilus, type 'burn:// ' (without ' , note the space characters at the end of the path).

--------------

"Could not display "burn://%20%20/"

Error: DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.InvalidArgs: Mountpoint Already registered
Please select another viewer and try again.

-------------

I guess some paths do end with space(s). However, could nautilus, if the path is not found, try to strip the ending space characters?
