I tried to setup automount on demand of a sshfs according to the wiki, but every time I try to access it, Nautilus gives me this error:
This location could not be displayed.
Sorry, could not display all the contents of “htpc”: No such device

If I try to execute the ExecMount in a shell, it works successfully, but I get asked for the password to unlock my private key. If I mount using `sshfs jonnathan@192.168.1.150:/home/jonnathan /mnt/htpc` without sudo, I don't even get asked for a password, as gnome-keyring/seahorse is set to unlock my private key on login.
My guess is that the mount command can't ask me for a password because is not running in a terminal so the connection gets reset.
Is that really the problem? if so, how do I instruct the systemd/mount or whatever to use the gnome-keyring?

This is not really a solution, but you should try to make a passwordless ssh key for your user and your sudo user. That's how you can make sure that your problem is actually the unlocking of the key itself, and not something else.

I tested with a passwordless key and indeed the password seems to be the problem. anyway, I found a solution. It's ugly but it works (kind of).
first I removed that line from /etc/fstab. then I created these two files:
/etc/systemd/system/mnt-htpc.automount
[Automount]
Where=/mnt/htpc
[Install]
WantedBy=remote-fs.target
/etc/systemd/system/mnt-htpc.mount
[Mount]
What=jonnathan@192.168.1.150:/home/jonnathan
Where=/mnt/htpc
Type=fuse.sshfs
Options=noauto,x-systemd.automount,_netdev,users,idmap=user,IdentityFile=/home/jonnathan/.ssh/id_rsa,allow_other,reconnect
Environment="SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/run/user/1000/keyring/ssh"
then I enabled it.
# systemctl enable mnt-htpc.automount
but now the SSH_AUTH_SOCK variable is randomly unset in my environment, not sure if related.
