What is the point of hiding the mount point of these shares from the users?
Nautilus should be consistent in its treatment of filesystems, and mount
network drives in the same way as it mount USB drives - namely in /media .
Right now there is no way to access those drives from other applications
severing crippling the utility of nautilus.
For example, I cannot import my music library that resides on a samba
server. Even when I try to access the files through .gvfs I am being
prevented from doing so ("Only local files may be selected").
Nautilus isn't only not helping access these files, it is preventing me
from doing that in other applications which rely on nautilus to browse
the filesystem, but do not understand its smb:// protocol.
