Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

## Steps to Reproduce ##
Try to mount and browse a floppy disk:
 1. Put a floppy disk in your floppy drive
 2. Open the Computer location in browser window
 3. Double click on "Floppy Drive" icon
 
## Current Behavior ##
The floppy disk is mounted, then nautilus (browser) jump to / (root) directory.

## Expected Behavior ##
Nautilus should jump to the mountpoint for floppy disk (/media/floppy) when the disk is mounted.

## Additional Info ##
If you disable the automount for CD/DVD and try to do the same to mount and view the CD/DVD disk contents, it works fine. 

## Severity ##
High, IMHO. This is a really really bad behavior for unexepienced users: they expects to browse the selected item, not another location.

## Thanks ##
My mum, she discovered it while I wasn't at home. She thinks I've hacked something to annoy her....
