           Summary: Device Notifier: no actions for mounting encrypted
                    volume
           Product: plasma
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: plasma-bugs@kde.org
        ReportedBy: james@albanarts.com


Version:           Plasma Workspace: 0.3 (using KDE 4.2.0)
Compiler:          gcc version 4.3.2 20081105 (Red Hat 4.3.2-7) (GCC) 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

I have an LUKS encrypted USB hard drive with partitions within it (set up with
the help of
http://penguinenclave.blogspot.com/2008/07/encrypted-removable-storage-with-fedora.html)
When I connect it the encrypted volume is added to the device notifier list as
"Volume (crypto_LUKS)".
When I move over it grey text says the only action available for it: "Download
photos with digiKam".
When I click on it that action is invoked, and although it asks for the
pass-phrase and makes the enclosed partitions visible on the list, it also
opens digikam which I don't want.

Expected behaviour is for it to either have an action for opening in dolphin,
or better have a basic action for simply "mounting"/"unlocking" (not sure if
that's the correct terminology in the context of volumes) the volume so that
the enclosed file systems are made available without the bringing up of any
more windows. The user can then open the inner file system in dolphin or
whatever.
