Proposed fix/workaround: catch error, quietly continue. Works fine for HTTP downloads, not sure if it breaks anything else. Edit (1.3 KiB, text/plain)

Here's a patch that picks up on Chris Kilgour's suggestion. It catches the Error, then simply continues.
This fixes the issue for me with HTTP downloads. Not sure I like it though because it might break something else: what if there really is an error?

I'd like to get some input from someone who is more experienced with the Vala File objects. Why does it even have to mount the remote File or its enclosing volume? I did some printf debugging which showed that the remote File's basename is just the file you try to download, but when I do get_path() I get null.
