Average user probably would not bother this unfamiliar option. If they do try click 'Unmount', neither the device nor their files would be hurt. Besides, they can even perform 'Safely remove' option on a unmounted device, too. For the users who want more control on device, this GUI way is pretty handy. PS: I agree that probably test list is not a good place to discuss this issue. Maybe user list? Perhaps a public poll ? ;-P Regards, Tommy > > -- > test mailing list > test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe: > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test > -- Take a Deep Breath out of Windows -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
