I was thinking in the same direction. When the mountpoint of a vault is changed (or new) a warning message about baloo's activity should be displayed. The message should be displayed regardless of baloo's enabled state. There's plenty of space for that in the dialogs. The user could then disable indexing with `balooctl` or via systemsettings. IMO configuration of this should be done by Plasma Vault anyway. Baloo's job would be to provide the tools to do it. It's framework after all and should make as few decisions as possible. > Is there any DBus call to baloo to do that? Nope. It shouldn't be to hard add the respective commands to `org.kde.baloo /fileindexer`. File a task for this if it's wanted.
