[Q] Why Boot2docker on Windows automount the Shared folders but this not seem to happen on Mac? #1133

Usability question, not directly related to an error with Boot2Docker
I've been working on a PR for Kitematic, as you can see here: docker/kitematic#1202 about allowing to mount volumes on other directories not only on User's directory. But, we got stuck at some strange behavior I'm going to explain and I need to know if someone can explain why this is happening.
On Windows host: when I add a folder to the shared folders on Virtualbox boot2docker machine and I use that shared folder on a container as a volume the boot2docker machine automatically (automagically?) mount the folder as you can see here:
But this behavior that's not be the same on Mac. Is there any reason to this different behavior on Windows host and MacOS host? Is it something related to the boot2docker machine? What is the supposed expected behaviour the one on Windows or the one on Mac?
Thanks for your help and sorry to have to open an issue to raise this question.
Best regards,
