What should be done, then ?

If I understand correctly, gvfs can multiplex calls from different
clients. So it might be a good idea to have it the only one to talk to
the MTP server. If so, rhythmbox could/should be changed to connect to
gvfs, right ? But rhythmbox would then talk gvfs, not MTP. Is that a
good thing ?

Or is it a better idea to insert a MTP-specific multiplexer that is the
only one available from clients (hiding the direct connection). That
multiplexer would accepts connections from multiple clients. Each client
would still talk MTP. Is that possible ?

In both setups, the MTP server talks to only one client, and several
simultaneous clients can talk to the server.

Is any of those two paths a good path to go ? Or something different ?
What are your thought ?
