Dolphin is a bit bloated but could *possibly* be workable. It hasn't always worked for me. Anything using GVFS is a real problem and won't do the other special tasks you want it to do. The GIO transition is killing all the fun. Not sure when or whether it will return, but it is a real buzz kill on the net. Alternatively, you could use fuse with a bit of scripting and any lightweight filemanager. Maybe automounter or amd?
