On my system (Xubuntu 14.04), mount/autofs require root privileges. Gigolo uses GIO/GVfs, so yes, they can be mounted by user. I believe thunar also uses gvfs.

Manually mounting using gvfs-mount (userspace) also does not show icon on the desktop.

Under which conditions would a network share show up on the desktop?
