In Ubuntu 12.04, after installing autofs and setting up nfs autofs
mounts, my nautilus temporarily hangs (window greys, freezes, becomes
unresponsive) when navigating local directories, if the server exporting
the autofs nfs mounts is offline.  This is observed even when navigating
local directories that do not contain any of the autofs mount points,
i.e. navigating somewhere under /home, with autofs nfs mount points that
are somewhere under /var.  Although the hang is temporary, it's a
looooong temporary.  I noticed a previous comment suggesting that using
separate threads could fix this problem in nautilus, even if the problem
could technically be attributed to nfs or autofs.  Sounds sensible.
