fiddle it for a bit but here's the basic concept.
You can create a desktop shortcut that opens your filemanager to the
specified location. When you go through the whole Actions > Connect
process it probably adds an icon

Good to hear that it is working for you - that is different experience

I'm pretty sure Gigolo came preinstalled with Xubuntu 18. It's there in
