Would there be any harm in running "mount -a" on a pretty frequent basis (say ever 30 seconds)? Or is there a better way to solve this?

Don't know, but I can't see how that would be a GOOD thing to do. Why don't you put a file out on the network share, then write a script to open/check for that file? If it's not found/inaccessible, THEN perform a force-dismount then remount.
