It would be really handy if the remote mpd server would do a 
"mount /mnt/public"  (or whatever nfs mount point was used if not /mnt/public) 
by itself if it's asked to do a music library rescan.

I have my music library on my main desktop (192.168.1.105) and I tend to 
suspend that machine to ram to save power when I'm away.  Obviously this makes 
the mpd remote "alix" host see the nfs mount die.  When I reload the music 
machine back from suspend, I then have to ssh to the alix and manually do a 
"mount /mnt/public"  ( I suspect "mount -a" would be ok too).  This is because 
I've found the MPD process can't seem to recover from losing the NFS mount.  I 
usually have to ssh to root@alix and do the "mount /mnt/public" where my nfs 
mount is:

/etc/fstab on "alix"

192.168.1.105:/home/public /mnt/public nfs rw,noatime 0 0


My suggestion is that the Voyage MPD try to mount remote filesystems that
are missing when a "reload library" event is requested by the MPD client.
This would make the ssh to the alix unnecessary.
