Its difficult to do a second mount to a second location of your
choosing via a mount command?  Last time I checked(3 minutes ago) you
can do your own mounts as needed no matter what the desktop
automounter is doing.
Its is it really difficult to create your own fstab entries? Now that
gnome-mount doesn't even attempt to write entries to fstab.. it should
be pretty easy to avoid getting confused with fstab manipulation.
Manual mounts that you need to do can exist in fstab.. like they
always use to before the fstab-sync existed.

Niether of these very ancient and very reliable techniques for
manually mounting things require you to turn off the desktop mounting.
