I have filed the cause of this as bug 469848.  When this is fixed, it 
should break on Mono as well.  Basically there is a hierarchy like:

abstract Item -> SolutionItem -> UnknownSolutionItem

SolutionItem and UnknownSolutionItem have a serialize attribute of 
"name" on them.  On Mono, GetCustomAttributes only returns the one on 
UnknownSolutionItem, not both of them like on .Net.

#6 needs the ":" removed from IsValidPath in FileService.cs.  #4 might 
be the same as well.

This is bug #459974.

My understanding is this is a limitation of the Gtk+ Wimp theme.
