[Bug 41944] Failure to connect to a server results in a useless window and icon

[Joachim Noreiko]

Public bug reported:

Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
To reproduce:

Choose 'connect to server' from the Places menu
Choose Windows share and make up an IP address so it'll fail

A window opens, and an SMB icon appears on the desktop. There is a
dialog box saying 'Some of the contents could not be shown'.

the window is pointless
the icon is pointless, and can't be deleted
the dialog box message is misleading: ALL contents could not be shown, and in fact the server could not be contacted at all, because it does not exist.
