I have many portable devices. Most of them I want mounted to a specific mount point. For example, I have a flash drive specifically for file backups and I want it mounted to /media/backup. This part isn't hard, simply get the UUID of the device, and add it to /etc/fstab. Whether or not the device is physically connected to my computer, it shows up in nautilus now. Think about this: I have 20 different flash drives for 20 different uses and I want 20 different mount points. Only a couple of the devices are plugged in at one single time, so in nautilus I have a sidebar filled with 20 devices that aren't even physically plugged in!
There should be a tab for completed installations, completed uninstallations, and applications pending. There should also be a progress bar next to the tab label. Also, I do not believe the applications should be immediately installed. They should be added to the Pending Applications tab. Once the user is ready to be installed, have a button at the bottom of the screen labeled, "," that takes you to the Pending Applications tab, where the user can look over the list of applications. This way, if they decide they don't want the application anymore, they don't have to install it. Then they press a button thats labeled "Begin," or something of the sort. During installation, and after installation, there should be a button at the bottom of the screen labeled "Proccessed Applications," which takes you to the "Proccessed Applications" tab. The proccessed Applications tab should have a list of all applications that have been (un)installed during the users current login session. The Pending Applications should only contain applications that have not yet been (un)installed. |

Once the user is ready to install, have a button at the bottom of the screen labeled, "Install..." or something that would make sense for that button, that takes you to the Pending Applications tab, where the user can look over the list of applications.
