Now that the capture plugin works, people would like to be able to download pictures from their cameras directly from within gimp. However, that is not that easy. Can it be that there is no possibility to register something like "camera:/folder/my_file.jpg" (like "http://...")? Even if above were possible, it seems that it would not result in thumbnails, folder and file listings (gtk-file-selection is too limited for that - no hooks for file/folder listings), another possibility would be to write a file opening dialog for files on digital camera. But where do I hook that up? There is no "/File/Open" submenu where I could put the menuitem in. That functionality doesn't fit into "/File/Acquire". I suppose there are no plans to make gimp use gnome-vfs (a gphoto2 plugin for gnome-vfs already exists). Have you thought about writing something like gimp-vfs where I could write a gphoto2 plugin for? Ideas?
