Bug Description
gnome-volume-
automatically executed (.autorun, autorun, or autorun.sh by default, see
/usr/share/
executed because pmount mounts volumes with 'noexec'.
The obvious fix is to mount it with the 'exec' option. Any opposition to that?

maybe. how do we protect users from malicious autoruns on unfamiliar media?
(get a CD from an unknown source, maybe it installs a worm when you insert it?)
