Hi,

I have mounted a smb share through the convenience clicking through of
Gnome's Nautilus browser. Great! However, I cannot seem to do anything
with it from a terminal. The properties (again, from Nautilus) don't
say where the local mount is, and the "Open in Terminal" extension is
not available for any of these directories.

Digging though similar questions and the technology behind, I have
discovered this was made possible with GVFS:
https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/gvfs/doc

which says: "The default mount point is /run/user/<UID>/gvfs, usually
located on tmpfs, with a fallback to the old location ~/.gvfs when not
available."

On my Debian Wheezy 7.4 (amd64) where I'm having this difficulty,
these directories do not exist:

/run/user
/var/run/user
~/.cache/gvfs

And this directory is empty:
~/.gvfs/

And the smb mount is not found here:
/media/
/mnt/

But, from the same terminal, I can see that there is a GVFS mount:
$ gvfs-mount -l
...
Mount(0): sharedir on wincomp -> smb://wincomp/sharedir/
  Type: GDaemonMount

So where is the local mount that I can use with a shell? Why is it so
obscure to find?

This is my same question: http://superuser.com/q/717893/79304
