It's become much worse with Jaunty :\

Now clicking on any (local or remote) folder anywhere (Desktop, home)
makes Nautilus try to mount the remote SSHFS folder (gives me a password
prompt). I haven't set any bookmarks.

If I open Thunar or browse my local file system in bash, everything's fine... 
that is, no remote folders get mounted.
When I browse the SSHFS test folder in Thunar or bash, they ask for a password 
once and then both keep the mount alive as long as I'm idling in a remote 
folder.
After leaving all remote folders the countdown set's in and unmounts... which 
is what Nautilus ideally should be doing as well, instead of having the 
countdown start as soon as I'm done opening a new remote folder. But this is a 
minor problem to the one mentioned above.

My current /etc/auto.master:
/media/SSHFS /etc/auto.sshfs --timeout=10,--ghost

My current /etc/auto.sshfs:
TEST -fstype=fuse,rw :sshfs\#u...@domain\:/


I've tried juggling around options like setting the uid/gid in auto.master or 
setting noatime,noemtpy and similar in aut.sshfs.

SSHFS works perfectly when mounting manually (via launcher scripts), which is 
what I've been doing all the time now.
AutoFS also works as intended, mounting/unmounting cleanly in Thunar and bash.
I'd really like to have the "seamless" file system experience in Nautilus... 
except for the password of course, but that's a necessary additional security 
step for me, and working around it by turning off password auth only figh§ts 
the symptoms.
