OTOH, I agree that it would be very useful to be able to set a default action, so that Enter or clicking OK would be enough. Otherwise, setting dolphin to the top of the list would be an improvement.

When would you want to do that? To save a file to it, perhaps? I opened a .jpg in gwenview, inserted a pen-drive without mounting it, then, in gwenview clicked File > Save As. I could see the pendrive in Places, so I double-clicked it and it mounted. The save completed. Does that help?
