What Happened?

Running OS8 in a Gnome Box, I shared a folder on the Horus host. An item appeared in network relating to a spice share but this could be opened. To access the folder required manually entering the correct location (dav://localhost:9843/<name of folder>). This could then be bookmarked. By comparison Nautilus showed the shared folder immediately as a separate item in the sidebar.

Steps to Reproduce

See above

Expected Behavior

Files immediately provides direct access to shared folders in Gnome Boxes (Uses the spice-webdav protocol)

OS Version

8.x (Early Access)

Session Type

Secure Session (Wayland)

Software Version

Latest release (I have run all updates)

Log Output

No response

Hardware Info

Even better if gvfs detected the availability spice-webdav server and made it a virtual drive.
