When the gfvs is actually mounted (which it seems to be even when Sugar is running, not Gnome), ls and du give errors when run on the home directory (even as root).
It would be nice if standard UNIX utilities didn't barf on Gnome's extensions.
And it's the case (as my user) : $ ll .gvfs/ total 4 drwx------. 1 mathieu mathieu 4096 2009-10-29 22:38 sftp for bochecha on fedorapeople.org
Of course, as root : # ll /home/mathieu/.gvfs ls: cannot access /home/mathieu/.gvfs: Permission denied
