Bug Description

Binary package hint: pysdm

In partition's "General configuration" tab, I want to add media to mount on boot. By default disk name coincide with partition name, I'm trying to change this. I press the button to choose mountpoint, and select, say "/media", "Name" field changes to "media". Than, when trying to type folder name in "Name" string "/media" duplicates in "Mountpoint" string each time I press any key.
For example, I have "media" in Name field and type "/DISK1" to the end - result mountpoint will be "/media/media/media/media/media/media/DISK1".
If removing "media" from "Name" field first, than mountpoint will be "/DISK1" that is incorrect as well.

I expect that interface behavior does not change after choosing mountpoint from dialog. "Mountpoint" string must contain the point I selected ("/media/") and what was typed in "Name" must appends to it.

Also (must it be submitted as a separate bug/suggestion?) must propose disk label instead of partition name as a default "Name" or even allows to choose between them.
