[SOLVED] Unable to write to GVFS mounted shares

I'm running the current version of Gnome from Arch and am unable to write to any files except with Nautilus.  I have mounted a share from an Ubuntu server via SMB, STFP and FTP and tried to tag music using Musicbrainz Picard and Easytag natively, and foobar2000 using WINE.  Every single one fails with an I/O error of some kind.  Musicbrainz Picard log shows the following error:

IOError: [Errno 95] Operation not supported:

I do not recall having this problem under Gnome 3.14.

Is anyone else seeing similar behavior?

Re: [SOLVED] Unable to write to GVFS mounted shares

Got a reply from Gnome developers that this is "as-designed" and an app need to use a new API to enable this functionality.  The previous method was causing data corruption.
