that's exactly what I saw as well. While gnome-mount code seems to use a
gnome-mount-properties.glade file it is not obvious how.

that would mean delete action can vary between different computers and

getting this wrong can be a lot costlier.

Hi Benedikt
It may be too early since 1.0 is not out yet but I'd like to have your
opinion on the two apparently most requested features, samba and trash
support.
What do you think is the best way to get these done in the next 3-4
months? For samba something like xffm uses (calling helper apps

Hello Benedikt
It would be nice if properties on a directory showed its total size
(maybe even the number of files) as it is (was?) the case in Windows
Explorer and in Nautilus.
Unless you think this is best implemented outside the thunar or it is an
unnecessary feature here's what I think:

Hello Benedikt
what is the reason for not automounting inserted media but waiting for
the user to click on it? It is especially confusing when in a /media/dir
remove/insert and a manual refresh or explicit mount is needed to see
the contents again.

In gnome they now seem to be replacing gamin by directly talking to

Hi
I am thinking about the best way of implementing a 'Places menu'-like
functionality for the new panel using thunar, as it is found in gnome.
It should resemble the desktop menu plugin instead of a launcher but
have filesystem paths as items, much like what is now in thunars left

of xfce, while the people managing translations for it are the same I
think. If this turnes out to
