Bug Description
Binary package hint: nautilus
Links to folders on unmounted partitions pretend they are broken instead of mounting the partition.
Steps to reproduce:
Mount a partition[1], create a link on the Desktop pointing to a folder on that partition, unmount the partition. Then try to open the link on the Desktop - it will tell you it is a broken link.
Opening the link should mount the partition if it is not already mounted.
[1] I have tested only with NTFS partitions and an up-to-date Ubuntu Jaunty.
