  Target Milestone: ---

Hi folks, so recently I noticed that when accessing ftp or smb paths, the url
string remains url encoded which is an issue with files that have square
brackets for instance.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a file with a character that would get encoded in a URL
2. Try deleting that file or moving it to a folder where it already exists
3. Dialog will display the encoded url

OBSERVED RESULT
The filepath string remains url encoded.

EXPECTED RESULT
The string should show as decoded as it would in a web browser for instance or
any other file manager.
