Hi Robert.
One thing I like with DEs is that they can show/hide icons of the
pluggable devices, as they are inserted/removed and I can decide to
mount/eject them in a mouse-click. Automounting, and even more, may be
desirable in some cases, when automation is desired - eg plugging the
backup disk - but in the general case I prefer to decide myself.
