With some reference to this blog post:

http://www.gnome.org/~fherrera/blog//Applications_instead_of_commands

I think this really should be a deeper issue. I think it would be very helpful
if Gnome had an idea of the preferred dvd/other video disc player, and the
prefered audio-cd player, in the same way as it knows the preferred browser etc.
 This would mean that all gnome-volume-manager would need to ask is whether to
play the disc, not what command to run. The same would then be true of nautilus:

-------------
Play Video
Open
Browse Folder
-------------
etc

(I don't feel inclined to open a b.g.o account at the moment; if anyone agrees
with me, please send this upstream.)
