Well, with gfilenotify it is known that there are timimg issues if
events occur in short period. Some of them are suppressed then, likely
as performance feature of gio.

With the local gfilenotify library (not used in your case) I could fix
this; the remote gvfs-monitor-dir process does not offer an argument for
changing the timing.

I've changed file-notify-tests.el in order to handle this. Could you,
pls, check?

Best regards, Michael.
