I agree that faking network mounts is a good thing, but parsing mtab makes for much easier configuration. Instead of forcing the user to add a server field, wine can figure it out itself. Isn't that a good thing? Why force the user to enter in duplicate info?
Because you have to enter all the info for the drive configuration anyway. I agree doing everything dynamically would be better, but it's a lot more complex. An ugly hack to parse /etc/mtab just for smb mounts doesn't really seem better or easier to understand than having to put this info in the drive config.
