Describe the bug / provide steps to reproduce it

GVFS is a mechanism used by GNOME to mount remote folders locally . The GVFS mount folder looks something like this /run/user/100/gvfs/sftp:host=remote.host/home/abc/zed

Steps to reproduce : (Either of the below )

1. Nautilus : Right click folder & select "Open with .." . Select Zed
2. Terminal : open a GVFS folder on terminal & type "zed . "
3. Drag and drop folder from nautilus onto Zed

• 1 & 2 fails to open the folder .The path is pruned at 'sftp'
• 3 works
• Same steps work in Codium

Assume there might could be similar issues opening remote folders on Linux
