Bug Description

Open a Nautilus browser, select 'Connect to Server' from the File menu, and
mount an SMB share. Browse this share in Nautilues, and right-click on a folder
in the share. There is no context menu to 'Add to music library' present. I
don't know if this is gnome-vfs2 or gnoe-mime-data.

I think that's because rhythmbox doesn't support the network drives.
BTW the new upstream versions remove the 'add to library' feature so this bug
will be
closed when the new version is in.

Are they just removing the mime type registration? I could still right-click and
add it via the "Open with" option, right?

no, they don't remove the mime registration, just the special entry 'add to
library' in nautilus
