Wow, that's a _really_ long list.

Just did a little bit of digging. File managers seem to use it for
querying available devices for mounting. IMHO, these tasks should
be moved to an separate agent, which can be called via some simple
command line interface - each device manager then should supply it's
own implementation for that command.

What do you think about that ?
