Nautilus does not restart because it is in the required components, but
also because it registers as an autorestart application.

BTW, I suggest you report bugs (upstream if possible) for the cases
where it hangs, since a hanging mount is not supposed to make nautilus
hang. I’d prefer that we fix bugs instead of relying on behavior that
interacts pretty badly with the session manager.

If you really want this, you need to set X-GNOME-AutoRestart=true in the
desktop file.
