Perhaps I'm misunderstanding the question, but wouldn't making an alias 
of a network drive and placing it on your desktop (or wherever) 
accomplish much the same thing? Especially if you clicked the Options 
button in the network connection dialogue and activated the "Add 
password to keychain" option to save your log-in password.

If you did that, the network drive/volume/folder would always appear as 
an icon on your desktop and all you would have to do is double-click it 
to mount that drive/volume/folder on your computer.
