'Open with Archive Mounter' Thunar option (gvfs). Does it work in Thunar for you?

Right-clicking on a compressed file of maybe any sort there's an option 
'Open with Archive Mounter' which is part of gvfs-archive.
For me it doesn't do anything. It doesn't give any output when running 
from the command-line either (/usr/libexec/gvfsd-archive file=<file>).

Does it work for anybody?
The desktop file is /usr/share/applications/mount-archive.desktop

'yum info gvfs-archive' says:

Description : This package provides support for accessing files inside 
Zip and Tar archives, as well as ISO images, to applications using gvfs.

Maybe Thunar isn't compatible with it?

Update: I noticed it works on pcmanfm. I just opened it and the files I 
had tried to mount show properly on the side pane (and work as expected).

(on the right is pcmanfm with the files mounted and on the left is 
thunar showing nothing).
