I have a very similar problem:

Given a samba share on debian server which allows READ ONLY access to anonymous and READ WRITE access to my named user: kpeter.

There is no way to write on this share because gvfs always connects as anonymous, there is no way to specify my user/pass.

If I mount manually with explicit username things became stanger:

Let say:
$ gvfs-mount smb://kpeter@duron/projects/

It works, I can see the mounted share on my desktop.
$ gvfs-mount -l
Mount(0): projects ezen: duron -> smb://duron/projects/

After opening the share with nautilus a second mount appears on the desktop:
$ gvfs-mount -l
Mount(0): projects ezen: duron -> smb://duron/projects/
Mount(1): projects ezen: duron -> smb://duron/projects/

I think that this second mount is anonymous and it is very bad...
