"Sorry, this bug is quite confused in its definition.

Is the requirement to simply access USB via some file manager in Unity8,
or "

Yes. Exactly. I have been testing unity8 all through the xenial/yakkety
cycles when it first became available as a technical preview. I have
been testing unity8+mir since it's inception on again/off again. The
inability of nautilus (or any USB related app) to read/write files from
USB directly from the unity8 desktop really cripples one's ability to
keep a viable testing work-flow going. This also includes Libertine
container fails. As I mentioned at ubuntuforums we currently have to use
unity7 as a backdoor to install audio/video files.

Another example (as I continue to experiment with Libertine) is that
there is no way to restore an ISO to a USB stick unless we log off, go
to ubuntu-desktop, log in and use 'disks' or mkusb there.

This has been a systemic problem.. even during testing
ubuntu_personal.img

  I am not sure if you developers have been able to circumvent this
problem but there are certainly problems at Development Version Testing.
Is there an existing tool we can use?
