It can be set to discover changes in a specific directory, or even a specific file. Remember when Poettering tearfully proclaimed that systemd was the only way to "hot mount" stuff like thumb drives? On hearing that, I and another guy on this list took a couple hours and made an inotify based shellscript to auto-mount thumb drives as they're plugged in. It wasn't popular here because most Devuaners don't like the idea of automount: They prefer such mounting be opt-in. But we sure did refute Poettering.
