After some browsing it turns out this is not really a bug, but shall we say a "security feature".
There is this pklocalauthority stuff (see man page) that basically makes authorization things more complex, and to me, not logical. See ralph.ronnquist comment at Debian user forums page http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=128280
Therefore, it turns out the nautilus/gvfs-mount needs your password, but not for remote system. It wants your password for LOCAL system... that worked for me, no matter how strange it is. I mean, the nautilus clearly states it needs a username/password for remote system?
