Comment 2 for bug 1211118

This looks like a few bugs packed into one.

pmount - not sure what having this installed does, can you explain?

usbmount - Your issue here is that usb drives are not automatically mounted. This might've been addressed before and decided we don't want it because it's potentially a security issue and you can also mess up your drive if you unplug it without manually unmounting it. Specifically with usbmount, I see that it requires root password to unmount the drive, which is no good.

ntfs-config - I can't tell exactly what this does. In what common situations do users need this functionality? It looks like an advanced tool. Where do the file managers you listed expose this functionality in their interface?
