Bug Description

Binary package hint: gvfs-fuse

Please include this tiny (13K .deb!) glue package with the default installation - it provides such an important link in the system for working with network resources and console apps via ~/.gvfs

Use case: Testing/extracting .rar and .par2 data on remote servers. Also, using non-GNOME apps to play LAN media files. The alternative is copying all the files to the local machine - very inefficient!

The default user is now already part of the 'fuse' group, so it makes sense to go the extra step. If this can go in for hardy, it'd make my day! :D
