Public bug reported:

Ubuntu Natty: I connect to a server location (Places | Connect to server), 
connect to a Windows share, specify a folder and add a bookmark. It connects 
perfectly to the network location but it puts a 'shortcut' icon (sorry for this 
terminology; I come from the  Windows world) on the desktop, called 'username$ 
on 10.0.0.10'. Unfortunately I cannot rename this shortcut, which is quite 
annoying, since this name doesn't make any sense for non-technical members of 
my family. 
Even worse, when I add another bookmark to a different folder on this server it 
adds a shortcut with exactly the same name:  'username$ on 10.0.0.10', even 
though they point to different folders.
I believe this is the same issue as reported in #109260 but that was closed no 
change.
Please make it possible to rename these entries, or at least assign them the 
friendly BOOKMARK name.
