About the "Cannot extract archives in a remote folder "<foldername>" on drag and drop...
I've looked at the code and, to me, it seems that developers have forgotten to remove a test that prevented extraction to a remote folder in
the previous versions, when this was not possible. As now they added support for remote extraction via gnome-vfs ***, I don't think the error message is necessary.
so... I've attached a patch against file-roller 2.19.91 (it just deletes the "if" condition for non local uris in the dnd extraction)

I don't have much time now, please test it :)
