Thunar does not show partitions that are in fstab

I've got a strange issue with Thunar. Thunar displays icons for my two NTFS Partitions, but not for my ext4 Partition. The Partition is already mounted because and I can access it via /media/Mint (Mint is the Partition Label) but there is no shortcut (on the left). However the shortcut appears when I unmount the Mint partition. Then Thunar displays a shortcut and is able to mount/access it. When I remount the Mint partition via command line or Nautilus - and no Thunar instance is running, again the shortcut disappaers.
Nautilus has no Problems at all and displays the shortcut without intervention.
Also, I noticed that no shortcut is displayed on my Desktop.

That's really weird and I've no idea what's going wrong.

The reason for this behaviour is that Thunar doesn't show partitions that are in fstab.

Please could you implement this ability? Other filemanagers like Nautilus or PCManFM already do this.
