This is because smb://server and smb://server/ are actually two
different things.

smb://server is a link.
smb://server/ is a directory.

When you load smb://workgroup the VFS will generate a list of links,
instead of a list of directories, so that the workgroups and computers
appear with proper icons instead of appearing as ordinary folders.

However when you click on one of those links it brings smb://server/,
with the ending slash, which also has links for each share.

At least in 2.4 and 2.6. I haven't messed with 2.8 yet.
