"automountUnknownDevices" is now labeled "Automatically mount unknown devices" 
and hinted "all attached devices will be automatically mounted[, "otherwise 
only remembered devices will be"]


Sounds correct to me, but the automount GUI sucks.

You've to enable automounting to get a list of four items:
- known only
- "all" (does that invoke the "known only" rule?) on login
- on plugin
- an override list

What you indeed have is "on plugin" and "on login", multiplied by the "seen 
only" rule.
And then there's an override list, with a lot of unchecked devices what seems 
to suggest the above rules doesn't actually apply to most things.

What there should be are two checkboxes:
[ ] Automount removable media when attached
[ ] Automount removable media when logging in

each of them activating a "Device override" group which allows to controlthe 
override list as well as a third checkbox

[ ] Do not automount media that has not been mounted before

And the following override list probably needs to be some sort of tristate - 
defaulting to no override, what could be done by a leading checkbox column 
which activates the override for this device itfp.
