Comment 15 for bug 270990

Good evening,

Here are two patches. The first is a partial fix letting aside some gnome_vfs_uri notations on the command line which are still buggy.

The second fixes everything but introduces a dependency to gnome_vfs in system.cpp.

Here are the tests I've been running.
Buggy = auto-detect file format fails and filename contains the vfs method suffix (#gzip:)
