[OpenAFS-port-darwin] AFS as OS X home directory

Apologies is this is off-topic. I have AFS running on OS X 10.2.2, with
MIT krb authentication to our AFS servers and directory access to our
LDAP server for user home directory information. This works great, and
any AFS user can login in a manner identical to our AIX and IRIX
workstations. I have 2 problems, one is a show-stopper.
Any OS X file dialog wants to show a directory tree of all mounted
volumes, so showing our AFS home space with 10K+ users takes several
minutes. Is there a way to customize OS X to not do this, or perhaps
start the display at the current working directory?
Second, I have no AFS token after login. Is there a clean solution to
this? Assuming the file dialog problem could be "fixed", forcing the
user to klog would be okay.
Many thanks,
Steve
