Format in a context menu is a very risky move! It should *not* be accessible so easily.
A context menu is only for commonly used actions and format is not a commonly used action for *most* users.

The sensible location for this option is in the properties window , similar to how Windows does it.

I have literally been scared to even click on that option , for fear of loosing the contents of the partition. :(
BTW , what does it do? instant format? or open Palimpsest / gparted?

Since this has not been done this way , I'd like to know how to prevent it from being present in the context menu.
