Thinking about it again... Garcon is not going to depend on any Xfce libraries,
so there it won't be useful. 

Thunar could use it because if you have a random string (entered by the user)
and you want to create a GFile, there's no way around distinguishing between
URIs and local paths. There you need a function like that. I guess exo needs it
to, it also takes random strings via e.g. exo-open and needs to find out if
they are local paths or URIs.

I suppose the appfinder could also use it, should I extend it in a way that
allows arbitrary strings to be executed/launched. But since there is no code
for it yet, I'm not sure. 

I think random user input is about the only situation where this is really
needed. Other (core) components you can think of where this might be important?
