Bug Description

I would like that ubuntu detects when a drive or partition is protected by bitlocker, so prompts for password after clicking on the unit icon, from any filesystem manager like nautilus or dolphin. Basically, replicate the Windows behavior would be the ideal.

The automatic recognition helps prevent users from wiping the drive or partition in case they think it's unformatted.

As far as I know, support for BitLocker is already available on util-linux.
