I think some thought is needed about the shift from HAL to DeviceKit-disks. The HAL FDI file was added with this changelog entry:
* The hal standard configuration no longer allows the 'locale=' mount option
for NTFS, as the Linux kernel NTFS driver does not support this option.
As a workaround we install our own fdi file 20-ntfs-3g-policy.fdi to
/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor which will add this mount option back
and make hal use ntfs-3g as default fs driver.
DK-disks doesn't seem to support locale= (nor, in fact, does it support many of the other options supported by ntfs-3g), so what do we do here? I've asked Martin Pitt for advice on IRC.
