I feel like sucha dork.... The whole time I was trying to do this with hdiutil, I was redirecting the mountroot to my home folder.... Well I had my home folder open and thus as soon as it mounted it appeared on the desktop. I redirected to the Application Support folder and while the disk image mounted and was accessible, it was not on the desktop until I opened that particular folder and tahdah it appeared on the desktop. I did not see this tid bit of info anywhere I looked in the docs or man pages so I did not realize I was defeating my own efforts simply by having a window open. I even googled: "How to mount a disk with hdiutil without it showing on the desktop"...

However Kyle I agree 100% and will file a report.

Have you looked at the -nobrowse and -private options to hdiutil?
