Quickly mount AFP share points

Normally, when you mount a remote drive over AFP, you are presented with a list of available share points to mount. If you know which one you want, you can save yourself some time by adding it to the URL you give to the "connect to server" panel.

For example: If you want to mount the share point "foobar" from a server at 192.168.168.5, use this

afp://192.168.168.5/foobar
If there are spaces in the name of the mount point, you may need to encode them using %20.
