Bug Description

Trying to open your "Personal Folder" from the "Locations" menu will prompt you for your root password.

This happened to me ever since I've been running the alpha of 8.10.

I thought it might be due to some faulty upgrading.
So I did a clean install of the 8.10 RC yesterday, but the bug was still there.

I don't think this is a Nautilus bug, but more likely an issue with your setup with regards to your "Personal Folder" and EncFS integration. Nautilus does not ask for passwords except mounting volumes. Someone more familiar with your setup and EncFS should be able to help.
