I created a test setup on a fresh Ubuntu 18.04
sudo mkdir /m /mnt/m /m/doc
sudo touch /m/doc/test.txt
sudo apt install nfs-kernel-server
sudo echo "/m 0.0.0.0/24 (rw)" >> /etc/exports
sudo systemctl restart nfs-kernel-server
There should be no error.
sudo mount -t nfs 127.0.0.1:/m /mnt/m
Here neither.
A `ls /mnt/doc` should contain the "test.txt" file.
Now create a new user "tester" and log in via Gnome, so that the standard
directories are created.
back as admin user, delete the "/home/tester/Documents" folder, and do a
ln -s /mnt/m/doc /home/tester/Documents
Now I tested nautilus - and it worked.
So IMHO this bug can be closed, at least for 18.04 it is working correctly now.
