It seems here that gvfs-mount is blocked by the RSA fingerprint check.
If I run `gvfs-mount sftp://myserver/` on a freshly installed Hardy
Alpha5, it fails with "Error mounting location: Zeitüberschreitung beim
Anmelden" (ie. timeout during login).

If I run `sftp myserver`, it prints this:
Connecting to myserver...
The authenticity of host 'myserver (192.168.0.1)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is <fingerprint removed>.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added 'myserver,192.168.0.1' (RSA) to the list of known 
hosts.
Password:

I don't have to provide the password here, it's enough that the ssh
server is now added to known_hosts.

If I then run gvfs-mount sftp://myserver/ again, it asks me for the
password and succeeds (I can browse the sftp share in Nautilus
afterwards). Deleting ~/.ssh/known_hosts makes gvfs-mount fail again
with timeout.
