I have another machine which does not have the above "firefox starts instead of nautilus" problem, and I am able to confirm that the bug is still there. I could have tested this earlier, I forgot about the problem, sorry.
The linked bug in the gnome BTS is not rejected, there seems to be a bug in launchpad since here in this page it says
product gnome-panel (upstream) __Rejected__ Unknown Linked to gnome-bugs #326835"
I can provide more information if you tell me what you need. The panel "unhangs" after a typical network timeout as I would expect.
I also tried to change /desktop/gnome/interface/file_chooser_backend from 'gnome_vfs' to 'gtk+' in gconf-editor but it changed nothing, this seems to confirm that bug #32873 has nothing to do with this one.
