I do confirm that this proposed patch resolves this nasty bug on quantal. So, from my point of view, this is a big THANK YOU to all the upstream developers and the smart Ubuntu guys!!!

Some notes (I always use a fresh standard live 32 bit USB key with the same DVD-RW):

- the patch is still not "proposed" on 11.10 and 12.04 (see https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/brasero/), so I cannot rightly test it there
- the "unreadable coasters" produced from other Ubuntu versions are seen as blank disk from standard brasero 12.10, and can be easily blanked with it. This is different from old versions of brasero that does not recognise it at all as a DVD medium.
- the bug (don't ask me why) is quite different on 12.10. Here sometimes you can have a readable DVD, but never on the first recording! It seems that it's somehow and sometimes able to record a second recording session on what it thinks it's a blank disk.

+1 for going to stable on quantal!
