Public bug reported:
Anytime you plug a usb mass storage media to you box a small pop-up appears suggesting to ignore images on the medium or to import them. Choosing ignore works perfectly ;-).
But choosing "import" open to gthumb with the new medium openend. This is nice for displaying images (as a third option "display" in the pop-up could suggest) but bad for importing images.
Here ghtumb with its import option ( --import-photos) would be the far better choice: Let the user choose which images to import and to which destination. Same procedure as with any digital camera.
The lates gthumb automagically detects images on usb mass storage devices.
My suggestion in short:
The pop-up appearing whenever a usb mass storage medium is mounted
should offer three options:
1. Ignore
2. Display images - gthumb showing thumbs
3. Import - gthumb --import-photos - the same dialog that appears when a digicam is connected
** Affects: gthumb (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
