Sure, here's an untested patch:

This way, any caller of 'util.browse_local' doesn't need to store the
dirname in gconf: browse_local will do it for us. It sucks that we have
to pass conn and config to the helper, but that info is typically easy
to access from the callers, so shouldn't be a big change.
