Hey list,

I've consulted with the folks at [email protected] and
determined that apparently there is a way to provide a custom icon on
mounted volumes in a fd.o friendly way. However, I haven't really found
a desktop environment that implements this so far.

The technique works by providing a .directory file (note only an
extension and no leading file name) in the root of the mounted volume.
This is a standard Desktop Entry file with the Icon field set to some
icon and probably with Type=Directory set.

What is the status of this feature under Unity and are there any plans
to implement it?
