This is something I came across earlier which seems like a bug in the
way
that kAXDocumentAttribute is handled.
Set up your system as follows.
1. Open a file on a file server in any application that uses Window
proxies
(I opened a picture from my iDisk in PhotoShop)
2. Without closing that window, unmount the file server.
3. Try to get the kAXDocumentAttribute for that window, the system will
force up the 'Mount this disk' UI.
It seems that AX is asking the window for its proxy alias and then
trying to
resolve it without disallowing the mount/UI flags.
Does this only happen in Carbon apps (you mentioned Photoshop), or in
Cocoa apps too?
I checked the Carbon sources and it looks like we'd call
MatchAliasNoUI, specifying kARMNoUI | kARMMountVol as the options. If
UI is still coming up, that might be a bug in a lower-level component.
At any rate, I wouldn't say this is expected behavior, and you should
file a bug.
