Jeremy, I'm sorry, but your comment about:

When you unmount a device that has bookmarked folders what is supposed to
happen is that the bookmarks disappears (it works for me!). They should
reappear when the device is remounted.

...confuses me. Are you referring to the actual bookmark itself? I just don't see how that's logical. So if I add a bookmark to a network location, it stays put for essentially that mounted session. When I unmount it, the bookmark disappears, thereby negating the entire premise behind the bookmark in the first place. Am I understanding this properly? I want the bookmark to *stay* there so I can click it so it auto-remounts all over again. That's like launchpad.net's bookmark in my browser disappearing when I close the tab, but the bookmark re-appearing in my browser after I manually navigate back to launchpad.net...

In other news, I just indicated on https://bugs.launchpad.net/pantheon-files/+bug/1030662 that there's a work around for adding network shares as bookmarks. The full description is under my post in that link, but essentially if you add your network path link to your .gtk-bookmarks file, you get a bookmark entry which stays there in a sane manner, ready for the next time you need it.

Cheers.
