Bug#639129: nautilus: chooses wrong default folder after mounting via sftp

[brian m. carlson]

Package: nautilus
Version: 3.0.2-2
Severity: normal

Back when I was using nautilus from GNOME 2, I created a gvfs sftp mount
to the file system root of another computer and bookmarked it.  Now, if
I click on the bookmark to mount it, I get the root directory, which is
expected.  However, if it is already mounted, instead of getting taken
to the root directory again, I get taken to my home directory (on the
remote system) instead.  This is annoying since I almost never am
interested in what's in my home directory on that machine, but instead
what is in /media.

I think that the behavior should be the same regardless of whether the
remote file system is already mounted: ensure that it is mounted and
then display the root of the remote file system.
