A lot of people sent me private emails with their own suggestions, but all were unusable (like Komba2 under FreeBSD - I couldn't get it to compile) or inappropriate (like one gentleman's suggestions of xsmbrowser, which acts as a wrapper to Samba's smbclient and doesn't use mount_smbfs at all). LinNeighbourhood is perfect! Exactly what I was looking for! I would have never found it without the suggestion either!
