Comment 33 for bug 31471

Discovered it here with the latest Firefox on Lucid.

   1. Open Nautilus and locate the .gvfs directory in your home directory (ctrl-h displays the hidden entries)
   2. Right click on .gvfs and make a link.
   3. Rename the “Link to .gvfs” to something like “Network”
   4. Drag the entry from above to your Nautilus bookmarks

This should make the behaviour "almost" as expected.
You could omit steps 2 and 3 but you would end up with a not very descriptive link called .gvfs
