Comment 10 for bug 196202

I disagree. I didn't want the choice, nor do I think a choice is necessary; Nautilus is a sane and very functional default for FTP, especially since, as François said, all other Places menu items open with Nautilus. Managing remote and local files through the same *file manager* is one of the slickest aspects of using GNOME/Ubuntu. Nor are FTP servers websites.

I don't know much about packaging, but it appears to be a *bug* in the Firefox packages that caused the unexpected and unwanted change.
