Title:
  Should make use of existing .netrc when connecting to ftp server

Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Set up a ~/.netrc with credentials for a given server
  2. Verify that automatic login with those credentials works when using 
command-line ftp 
  3. In a Nautilus window, select Connect to Server, enter given server and 
choose FTP (with login) as type

  What happens:
  Nautilus prompts for login credentials (User name, Password) with nothing in 
the fields pre-filled.

  What I expect to happen:
  For the fields to be automatically filled with the credentials I've already 
specified in ~/.netrc.

  Additional info:
  Nautilus apparently has its own way of storing credentials (i.e. different 
from ~/.netrc). When it has credentials of its own for a server, those should 
obviously come first. But when it doesn't, it should utilize ~/.netrc if 
possible.
