Comment 11 for bug 660010

I was about to report a bug on this but will add my two penny's worth here. I really, really like Unity. I think it's a great development, but this issue makes using it difficult. One of the things I would really miss from Gnome is the way that removable media like USB sticks and the like are displayed as an icon on the desktop - and can be ejected safely by right-clicking that icon. It's so easy and intuitive that I think it would be a shame to ditch it. Could it be possible to reintegrate this behaviour in Unity?
