--- Comment #8 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
The problem is that there is an infinite amount of code in KDE software that
assumes things that show up as local files won't randomly become transient.
Changing all of it is not only an impossible 20 year project, it would likely
reduce performance due to the need to check for whether mounts hasn't gone
stale.
At least the KDE apps should be updated to be able to find files using the KIO
workers. This is a much smaller and more feasible project.
For third-party apps that can't or won't use KIO, a better solution is to
encourage people to make use of kio-fuse for this by accessing their shares in
Dolphin, and then we change kio-fuse to do the FUSE mount in a persistent,
unchanging location. Then we also allow it to be automounted on login,
optionally. This would give us the best of both worlds.
