Sebatien, I agree that SFTP or gvfs is not malfunctioning here, but I also think Mikko's result should be the actual behavior. Consider:
* After using the "Connect to server" tool, a non-technical user clicks the bookmark in the Nautilus sidebar. He is confused to see folders like "usr" and "etc" instead of what he expects exists on the remote computer.
* A technical user is experienced with SSH and used to finding herself in the home directory when he logs into a remote host. The Nautilus bookmark takes her to an unexpected location.
I added "nautilus" as an affected package per Arnaud's comment. Maybe this doesn't actually affect gvfs at all; only the way Nautilus handles gvfs sftp connections.
