I was making a joke. It's not the documentation that's out of date.
Now that your understanding of how Connect to Server works has been
corrected, it is your initial expectation that is out of date.

My Joe Average is the guy sitting in the cafe with his MacBook, the
only computer he owns. Everyone's got a different Joe Average, I
suppose.
Even so, my point still stands: any user who's using the Connect to
Server box is *not* going to expect every possible volume to be
mounted. The sound engineering solution is to take care of the
mounting yourself. It also sounds like your clients would do well to
set up managed preferences to automatically mount their requested
volumes at startup.
