the missing desktop links are caused by the fact that KDE doesnt monitor the 
contents of /media/. In gnome gnomevfs uses inotify to watch its contents, it 
then just triggers the gnome mechanisms to add new devices.
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/ltspfs-virtual-hal-devices 
adresses that fact in a more desktop agnostic way. its sadly requiring some 
time to do the implementation.
i started some ground work some time ago 
(http://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/ltspfs-hal-root.png) but my to work on it time 
is very limited so it will likely still take a while.
