Leave autofs alone?

[Bjørn Forsman <bjorn forsman gmail com>]

Hi GVFS developers,

I'm trying to setup lazy sshfs mounting with autofs on my machine, but
gvfs keeps auto-mounting it:

Systemd journal snippet:

    systemd[1]: home-bfo-mnt-ul30a.local.automount: Got automount
request for /home/bfo/mnt/ul30a.local, triggered by 2166
(gvfs-udisks2-vo)
    systemd[1]: Mounting /home/bfo/mnt/ul30a.local...

If/when that remote filesystem is inaccessible, after a few iterations
of failed mounts, the systemd unit enters failed state ("Start request
repeated too quickly").
I'm sure I can somewhat improve the situation by tweaking systemd
RestartSec= and Restart= directives. But it's a hack, not a solution.

Any thoughts?

I'm running NixOS 16.09 which comes with gvfs-1.22.4. I know that is
over a year old, but even the latest gvfs from git master branch
doesn't mention 'autofs', so I figured nothing has changed in that
area.

Best regards,
