Doesn't read the user ssh config

[Fantu]

Using ubuntu 12.04 I found a problem already reported in bug 264803 and solved some years ago.
For example using nautilus sftp://server1 doesn't work using the host defined on ~/.ssh/config.

I have the same problem in Ubuntu 12.10. I've set up a proxy in my .ssh/config file, it works on the command line but is ignored if I try to use it in nautilus.
If I'm not mistaken nautilus uses gvfs as a backend to mount remote filesystem, dunno if gvfs is supposed to read the ssh configuration file at all so this would turn the bug into a feature request.
As a workaround I'm using sshfs to mount the remote filesystem, looks like it reads the .ssh/config file correctly, it can be found in the repository.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.
