Title:
  Ubuntu 18.04 mounted network shares not appearing under devices in
  file manager

Status in glib2.0 package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Apologies if this is not the correct package to file this
  bug/regression against.

  On my 18.04 desktop installs (Gnome shell and Ubuntu Mate) when
  mounting network shares (SMB and NFS) they no longer appear under
  Devices in file manager (Nautilus or Caja), the mounts do succeed and
  are accessible at their mount points.

  In 16.04 and 17.10 these mounts appeared under Devices (Screenshot of
  mounted network shares on Ubuntu Mate 17.10 attached)

  I am using the following code to mount NFS shares

  `sudo mount.nfs 192.168.2.123:/mnt/freenas-data1/photobackup
  /media/philroche/photobackup`

  and for SMB shares

  `sudo mount.cifs //192.168.2.123/photobackup
  /media/philroche/photobackup`

  Is this a bug/regression, or perhaps it is an intentional change?

  I did ask this on IRC in #ubuntu and askubuntu.com but no reply.

  Expected behaviour:

  I expected the mounted network shares to appear under Devices in File
  manager

  Actual behaviour:

  Mounting network shares does succeed as expected but does not appear
  under Devices in File manager as it did in previous releases.
