            Bug ID: 383498
           Summary: Mount media when clicking on it without having to
                    click the "mount" button besides
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: 5.9.5
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Device Notifier
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
          Reporter: tobias.leup...@gmx.de
  Target Milestone: 1.0

When I have Dolphin open and plug a removable storage device like an USB stick,
it appears in "Places". When I click on it, it's mounted and I can access it.

When I try to mount it via the device notifier by clicking "Open with file
manager" (or so), I get "You don't have the permission to mount this device".
When I click that "mount" logo, the device is actually mounted, and Dolphin
pops up when I click on it afterwards.

The device should IMO be mounted and displayed (in Dolphin) when clicking on
"Display in file manager". Or at least say "Don't click here when the device is
not mounted yet, click the mount button first" – but I think we can really
cheap out this by doing it automatically. I mean, when I click on it to view
it, I also want to mount it first, don't I?! ;-)

The "no permission" error message is a bit confusing as this is simply not the
case. First time I saw this, I kept searching for why I'm not allowed anymore
to mount removable media, until I saw that it's simply not the case.

Would be very nice it this was fixed.
