Well, some of us still use the command-line... but would like KDE to do the mount, either automatically, or by using the mount helper. But it doesn't even have an entry for "mount", does it? Also, I don't seem to be able to specify mount options. If the volume is in fstab then the mount helper refuses to mount them/open them in Dolphin, no matter whether the mount points exists or not. The defaults have changed recently (F10 updates), so that's a bit of a nuisance.
