Title:
  with network locations navigation bar shows 'real' names not
  bookmarked names

Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  with lucid and precise

  the nautilus left panel shows both connected network folders and
  bookmarked network folders but on clicking a bookmarked network folder
  the navigation bar shows the 'real' path not the bookmarked path

  example

  An employee (username = prosserg) has made a connection to a network
  folder eg 'prosserg on esther2' from their bookmarks by opening a
  bookmarked folder named 'H Drive' which is //esther2/prosserg.

  Subsequently when file browsing

  a) on clicking 'H Drive' in the left panel, the navigation bar first
  button says 'prosserg on esther2'

  WHY can't this button say 'H Drive' ie the NAME of the bookmark ?

  b) it is confusing to see, in the left panel, BOTH the bookmark name
  'H Drive' AND the connected network drive 'prosserg on esther2' listed
  since they are the same folder

  'H Drive' is of course windows-speak but for migrators from say XP to
  Ubuntu, the nautilus insistence on displaying the 'real' name of the
  connection rather than the bookmark name, significantly adds to
  confusion.

  I have had several employees experience difficulty locating files as a
  result of this current behaviour.
