I see there is a systray icon.

The Windows share seems to be untested.  You cannot mount
smb://192.168.0.10 for instance, you have to pass the name of a shared
directory, e.g. smb://192.168.0.10/flims.  You can set the Server to
192.168.0.10/flims, but that's a bug and it should provide an
additional "Share name" or "Shared directory name" entry.

You use a keyring daemon, great!  Dunno how it is done, so I go and dig
cause this is very interesting.

In the bookmarks, you should not display the URI Scheme column, instead
display the "Service type" as in the "Create bookmark" dialog.  The
labels smb, sftp, ftp are gross to a user pov, while the name "Windows
share" is not.
