I agree that it is not very likely that this problem lies in nfs, but I also 
don't think it lies in nautilus, thunar, dolphin etc. I am also experiencing 
hangs in vlc, totem, terminal even the login screen (after I locked the 
screen). Basically any application that requires (additional) disk access 
(which is just about every application) has issues when nfs server is 
disconnected. It could be that file managers are behaving especially bad as 
they read entire directories (or even directory structures), not just a single 
file.
I tend to think it has something to do with the mounting process itself or with 
vfs, but I have not been able to find concrete evidence.
