Until now, it is just the "media" method which is too close to a
directory name. And this can simply be avoided; taking "media" off the
default values of tramp-gvfs-methods would deactivate it; users who want
to exploit it must activate it first.
But currently I'm thinking about Kévin's arguments to call it "mtp". It
was also my first choice, but I wanted to be fair to the "gphoto2" method.

This will always be the case. Once I got a bug report from a user, who
wanted to access a local directory "/ssh:example.com/", see
bug#31489. Achhhh ...
Best regards, Michael.
