Unfortunately, yes.

After apt-get -t unstable install gvfs-backends (pulling in gvfs as well),
passwords are still asked.

    ii  gvfs-backends  1.4.1-2        userspace virtual filesystem - backends

By the way, when closing the share browser and bringing it back up again,
no password dialog box is shown.

Ciao.                                                             Vincent.
