Currently, if you mount an NFS device, it goes into the BVolumeRoster with
a "IsShared" == true setting. This results in the share showing up in the
tracker menu with the other devices.
It would be an interesting feature to automatically detect shared volumes
on the network and auto load them into BVolumeRoster (unmounted)

The not well known mount_nfs command results in not many users realizing
we support NFS shares.
