If you wanna open a file in thunar remotely via sftp, it does not work.
It's seems that our thunar package does not have sftp support.

SFTP and other remote protocols are supported via the gvfs (already
packaged in guix). Adding gvfs as input could increase the dependency
size of thunar by a few hundred MiB.

Pushed to master as commits 1fbbdef3c9..3bd8d238ab, 'gvfs-service-type'
is not enabled by default due to its closure size (webkitgtk, samba, etc.)
