I've just looked at these wiki articles. It seems, MTP is the protocoll 
interfacing the device, while GVFS is the file manager integration. My 
MTP-related packages are:

$ LANG=C pacman -Ss mtp | grep "\[inst" | grep -v libcddb
extra/gvfs-gphoto2 1.38.1-1 (gnome) [installed]
extra/gvfs-mtp 1.38.1-1 (gnome) [installed]
extra/libmtp 1.1.16-1 [installed]

GVFS is used by Gnome and obviously also by XFCE4 (with Thunar).

So, in my case, the architecture seems to be like this:

+--------+
+ Thunar |
+---+----+
     |
     |
     v
+--------+
+  GVFS  |
+---+----+
     |
     |
     v
+--------+ +------------------+
+  MTP   +-->+ Android-Device  |
+---+----+ +------------------+
