Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-mount
Using many external storage drives (dongle/external hdd ...) Gnome is not friendly in using them.
For that, gnome-media-applet offers many interresting features.
First, in place menu there are no icons to unmount drives, also on icons drives under desktop. They are shown only in nautilus.
Second, after an unmount of a drive, the drive is the same in gnome place menu. No differences between mounted or not (gnome-media-applet have icon grayed when unmounted). It's visually a great feature.
Last, an idea : why not using an screenlet/gdesklets to store dynamically icons of drives. Gnome remember last position of drive icon on desktop. Problem is that it can already have a icon of a file/folder in that position and gnome place the drive icon under the already present icon.
