(Get the code!)
Not to put too fine a point on it, but actually that is exactly what this requires. Microsoft phased out the SMBv1 protocol, (NetBios is dead, long live NetBios), in favour of their new protocol: Web Services Dynamic Discovery (WSD). There has been a lot of discussion and work as to exactly HOW WSD should be implemented for SAMBA and gvfs and what to do in future if Microsoft do another flip of the switch.
Granted this has taken a lot of time, but as previously mentioned, all of this discussion and development is dependent on people gratuitously handing over their free time. If you want up to date support and to demand for things to be done, might I politely suggest you fork out for a Red Hat enterprise subscription.
