You are right, both 1 & 2 suggestions are a matter of a simple setting. I
was thinking more in terms of a new user,
as I think more and more noobs will gradually find their way to Xubuntu.

Ubuntu automounts usb sticks, why not Xubuntu. If the user inserts it, it's
very likely that they want to access it's contents.

cheers!
