Bug Description
Scratch passes invalid paths to chardetect.py, which causes character detection to fail, e.g. on path "/home/
Scratch has no fallback for such case, and displays blank file when character encoding detection fails (i.e. fails silently) and makes the user believe that the file is blank, which is not true (and this is probably a separate bug).

Setting importance to hight because right now Scratch cannot display any files which have a space in the file name.
