I think this is a neat idea (though it probably wouldn't be counted as the "main feature" of 8.10). The next step would be for you to register it as a blueprint <https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu>, linked to a more detailed plan on the Ubuntu wiki <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/>, and propose the blueprint for discussion at the UDS-Intrepid meeting in May. If I was looking for commands relating to a disk's free space, health, backup, and partitions, I'd look in Nautilus's Properties window for the disk. Perhaps that window could be simplified (e.g. merging the existing "Basic", "Drive", "Volumes", and/or "Notes" tabs) to make room for new tabs with the new functions.
