You're right that mount points set by Dolphin aren't persistent. This is
precisely the problem that needs to be solved by implementing two features:
- Mount point names shouldn't be random character sequences but should either
match the original path name or be based on a hash of that path.

- If KIO detects that an application is trying to open a file located in a
remote path (the "Recent Files" feature mentioned earlier), it should attempt
to mount that mount point itself, and if it fails, the application that tried
to open the file should report an error.

I even think KIO could have a cache of remote mounts.
