SSHFS mounted partitions in /Volume do not appear in Leopard Finder sidebar

[GoogleCodeExporter]

SSHFS mounted partitions in the default location (ie, through the UI tool)
do not appear in the new Leopard sidebar for Finder, although the mount is
active. Manually going to the location in Leopard (Shift-Command G) works.

Possibly effects all MacFUSE filesystems, but I only use SSHFS.

One addional workaround until this is fixed...  If you go into Finder 
preferences and
add "computer" to the sidebar, you can access sshfs mounts from your computer 
on the
sidebar.

I'm surprised Apple didn't chose to enable that by default, it seems to do 
exactly what I want.  Assuming the fix 
isn't implemented as putting mounts in the right categories (which would be 
preferable), maybe the MacFUSE 
installer can ask to turn this on for you?

Right, the workaround now shows the mount, but it won't let you unmount it via 
the
Finder Eject button. (via console umount it works of course)

The unmounting procedure in Tiger has bitten me a number of times (when I 
forgot to
unmount sshfs shares before leaving a network and then after resume without a
reachable network the machine locked up completely so I had to reboot).
So I'm anxious not to forget unmounting, and this would be helped by the Finder 
Eject
button.

This isn't something I can fix -- this is how the Finder chooses to do things.

Before opening issues, please do read the FAQ.
