Hi guys,
My name is Christian and I'm the main developer of media-applet a small
utility for gnome that handles removable devices and local disks.
http://live.gnome.org/media-applet
In order to satisfy requests of people using media-applet, I'm working
to introduce a better notification system that notifies people when a
device is unmounted.
I have already made this on the latest svn release of my project, but I
have an annoying problem: *gnome mount* notifies users that they can
remove the device only when a device that require writing data to disk
is unmounted (after all data has been written on it), but this way I got
2 notifications telling the same thing to the users, the first from
gnome-mount and the second from media-applet.
See this Screenshot for a better understanding

/Since I think that gnome-mount is the proper place for handling this
kind of notification don't you think that it could be useful for users
to introduce in gnome-mount a notification that *always* //appears//
when a device is unmounted and not only when you unmount a device that
need some data to be written on it?/
Maybe this could be a user-activable feature through gconf.
If a device is unmounted with an application different from nautilus
(for example using media-applet :) ) there is no feedback telling you
that the device was unmounted and a notification could be very useful.
Thanks for your attention,
Cheers
Christian/
