These shares that don't show up, can you mount/unmount them as a user? Showing all the network shares will require a rewrite of this feature since GIO doesn't expose all the network shares as a GVolume.

Gigolo uses GIO/GVfs, so yes, they can be mounted by user. I believe thunar also uses gvfs. Manually mounting using gvfs-mount (userspace) also does not show icon on the desktop. Under which conditions would a network share show up on the desktop?
