--- Comment #2 from Jan Bidler <[email protected]> ---
For me there are two things that make me want to have this as modal
1. It looks like a modal popup, so I'm expecting it to behave like one too
2. Should you decide to come back later to the prompt, then the authorization
prompt is completely seperate from the action that you wanted to perform (e.g.
on the task manager it's not grouped under dolphin) making it harder to
understand the context. 

Since it would be modal to dolphin, I also don't really see any use case where
you wanted to mount a drive, but between the action of you clicking and
authorizing, had something else that much more important to do file-management
related, that the authorization prompt had to wait.

But as I'm looking around more, I realize this doesn't just affect dolphin but
rather every application that invokes that authorization dialog: System
settings, firewall-config,  kde partition manager, and probably more too. And
my gripes are the same there as well.
