After "forcing" gnome-mount (via "gnome-mount -d /dev/sdb1 --fstype ext4"), and unmounting (via gnome-mount -u), I rebooted and forgot to power off/unplug the USB drive. After gdm login, the system had no problem mounting the ext4 filesystem (/media/Backup1 was "just there"). Now, each time I "plug in" the USB drive, it just automagically mounts the ext4 FS without any complaints or problems. I can only guess that something was "caching" the filesystem type (udev?) somewhere.... On the up side, this is now "just working" for me. On the down side, not sure I can help debug this any longer....
