Description
I think this is simply a case of -o follow_symlinks not being provided as an argument to sshfs. Would it be sane to pass this by default within the net use handler?
I guess a bigger question would be how to actually pass extra arguments to sshfs via net use.

Research direction
Start by tracing the net use handler and how it invokes sshfs; the issue names no files or tests. Determine how symlink support and extra sshfs arguments should be represented, then define and verify the expected behavior for both default symlink handling and user-supplied options.
