Brasero is in fact what I used, but since it's not in main, I wasn't
sure if there was some more officially supported method.

Looking back at the instructions, they seem to loosely fit Brasero, but
I think what they might actually be talking about is the view you get
when opening a blank CD/DVD in Nautilus with nautilus-extension-burner
or nautilus-extension-brasero (also must be manually installed and not
in main, though the latter is installed with Brasero as a recommends).
They fit that almost perfectly.

That said, there is no notification that pops up for me when I insert a
blank disc, even after Brasero and nautilus-extension-brasero are
installed.

One other drawback of using the Nautilus extension vs. Brasero itself is
the Nautilus extension doesn't seem give the user the opportunity to
turn on or off multisession discs (not sure which it picks by default,
but I suspect non-multisession).

(Also, as an aside: Without either of the extensions installed, Nautilus
seems perfectly happy to let you copy and paste or drag files onto the
disc, but then there is no option to burn. Somewhat confusing for
unfamiliar users, but I suppose that's not really worth mentioning in
the docs.)
