I've tested the scenario (editing a remote file from Nautilus via Emacs)
with GVFS volumes of different types. ftp and afp-volume work w/o
problems. ssh/sftp behaves as reported (problem with file locking).
dav(s), google-drive and smb-share give another error:
Error: (file-error "Doing chmod" "Operation not supported"
"/run/user/1000/gvfs/smb-share:server=detlef,share=netlogon/tmp/tramp-test1H01tS")
So it doesn't make sense to implement the workaround in general. What we
could do instead is to map all files under "/run/user/%d/gvfs" to the
respective Tramp file name. Don't know whether it is worth the effort.
After all, I believe we shall simply document the behavior, and the
workaround for ssh/sftp.
Best regards, Michael.
