            Bug ID: 377259
           Summary: Status bar: For removable drives, add option to
                    unmount it
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 16.12.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: bars: status
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: codestr...@posteo.org
  Target Milestone: ---

Often I find myself in the situation that I
- insert an USB drive
- open dolphin
- copy some files to or from it
- want to unmount it in order to make it ready to unplug

CURRENT STATE:

- The address bar shows something like "74,5 GiB Removable Media" (this means
dolphin knows that it currently deals with a removable drive)
- The status bar contains these items on the right:
-- zoom slider
-- free space indicator

SUGGESTION:

- On the right-most corner - next to the free space indicator - there could be
an item that makes it possible to unmount the drive (and automatically close
the dolphin window?)
-- Rationale of why it could make sense to place the unmount next to the free
space indicator: e.g. I load files to a stick and watch the indicator for free
disk space. When it is (nearly) full the next action would be unmount.
- Additional benefit: if there are more than one removable devices attached,
there will be no doubt or confusion about which is the correct drive to
unmount. :)
