Granted, we're over a year since this bug was reported... :( ... but I have been digging around for a way to bookmark network resources since I connect to other file servers many times a day, both at home and at work. I do not see any sort of 'bookmarks' entry in Pantheon Files in its current form on Luna with all updates applied, so I assume that option was removed (...!?) at some point.
A workaround I found that seems to work is to add the entry to .gtk-bookmarks. Open Pantheon Files, show hidden files (CTRL + H), and open .gtk-bookmarks in scratch (fyi I had to go to open with, other applications, scratch). Add the full path on a new line to the network resource you want to bookmark. For example, I want a bookmark for my Samba share "Storage" on my server "Pluto", so I did...
smb://pluto/storage/ Pluto-Storage
Seems to work great. Again, this is just a workaround. The ability to bookmark network shortcuts should definitely, definitely be more straight forward. Here's to hoping this gets crunched... cheers!
