Yes, that's what I thought for such a simple bug.  Imagine if Comment #1 had 
been:

"Indeed, we seem to have broken gio when we added our gvfs hack, making the 
file chooser see only our file manager's mounts, ignoring everyone else's.  
That's a simple fix so I'll take care of it immediately.  Thanks for bringing 
it to our attention."

Everything else from them in that bug report was inaccurate and irrelevant, 
hostile and dismissive, and completely unnecessary.  I realize that's their 
normal tone with people, so those used to it may not hear it at all anymore, 
but for those of us used to working on open projects where opinions are heard, 
it's unbelievable conduct.

Perhaps it would be better if people actually interested in and capable of 
correcting a bug respond to bug reports, rather than just corporate reps trying 
to silence everything?  If there aren't any willing to correct it, just leave 
it open and unaddressed, which is what it really is, rather than allowing 
people to just preemptively close things, threaten people, and argue irrelevant 
details.  The amount of confusion created there by those responding to a very 
simple bug is astounding.
