That's interesting because a file containing / in its name is not valid. Linux uses / as a directory separator.
I tried saving a file with similar name containing /, and I wasn't allowed. Also, no http requests were made, when the error was shown.

That's very interesting, I've tried requestbin and it really does send an http request.
I have no idea what's going on under the hood. Maybe someone who is more familiar with the source code can enlighten us?

Edit:
I did some manual testing, and I think that before the error is shown gvfs, tries to mount the given file name over http for some reason.
After I disabled the http.mount of gvfs (which is located in /usr/share/gvfs/mounts/http.mount), no http request were made to requestbin.

I'm not sure if this answer satisfactory. I'd love to hear more myself. smile

hm, okey.
This feature will not become a potential vulnerability or method of attack through the backdoor?
