[Voyage-linux] Feature request - robust remount of nfs to voyage MPD music server if nfs point is missing

It would be really handy if the remote mpd server would do a
"mount /mnt/public" (or whatever nfs mount point was used if not /mnt/public)
by itself if it's asked to do a music library rescan.
I have my music library on my main desktop (192.168.1.105) and I tend to
suspend that machine to ram to save power when I'm away. Obviously this makes
the mpd remote "alix" host see the nfs mount die. When I reload the music
machine back from suspend, I then have to ssh to the alix and manually do a
"mount /mnt/public" ( I suspect "mount -a" would be ok too). This is because
I've found the MPD process can't seem to recover from losing the NFS mount. I
usually have to ssh to root at alix and do the "mount /mnt/public" where my nfs
mount is:
/etc/fstab on "alix"
192.168.1.105:/home/public /mnt/public nfs rw,noatime 0 0
My suggestion is that the Voyage MPD try to mount remote filesystems that
are missing when a "reload library" event is requested by the MPD client.
This would make the ssh to the alix unnecessary.
