There was a report from a few years ago about not being able to open Google Drive images in #GIMP. The assumption was that there were issues with accessing volatile files on a cloud platform.
The problem turned out to be much simpler - Google Drive returns an ID rather than the actual file name, so our auto-detect function couldn't match the image extension! :)
Thanks to help from Khalid Abu Shawarib, we now use the display-name which works for all files!
