There is too many time spent to fix simple issue: "enable or disable button" :)
It can be always enabled, no one care it. (At least me :) )
It always may fail later on apply, no matter how we check.
This is true for all FM on all OS: no one does not check all affected
files/subdirs to enable button.


PCManFM works better for my usecases, without any additional changes in glib20
and in any code.
I give up to fix all Thunar issues, like high CPU usage and freezes on
intensive FS/dir add/remove/update.


ssh:// - less useful that navigate in mounts tree, since it mounted always on
my host.
I switch to sshfs in time of FreeBSD 12, because NFS was ugly implemented and
some times mountpoints hang until system reboot. I do not like reboot :)
Now I have my own SSHFS fork https://github.com/rozhuk-im/sshfs since upstream
is dead and I need (time to time) to work with very remote shares (rtt: 60+ms).


> Have you tested with other file managers? If you find one that works "right" (for any definition of right) maybe we can look at what it does and get some ideas.

PCManFM - I suspect it does not waste of time trying to guess "is chmodable" :)
Same for mc.
