Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

When I try to drag-and-drop a file or folder to a bookmarked location on
a remote server (for example, my home directory on a server at my
school), nautilus reacts in a rather ugly way - it gives me an error
dialog, saying "There was an error getting information about the
destination: The specified location is not mounted." The quick-and-easy
workaround is just to click on the bookmark first (to open it for
viewing), which automatically mounts the location before opening it.
Drag-and-drop should show this same behavior - if the location is not
yet mounted, mount it before trying to do the copying.
