Review request for KDE Base Apps and Plasma.


Description
-------

If a removable device is mounted using the Plasma device notifier, there is no \
indication of what the Unix name of the device is or where it is mounted.  This \
information may be useful to the user for (a) accessing the mounted device from \
non-KDE applications, or (b) troubleshooting mounting or unmounting problems.

The attached patch shows this information when the device is hovered over, just above \
the "N actions for this device" text.  Depending on whether or not the device is \
mounted, there are three possibilities that can be shown here:

  /dev/XXX                           when not mounted
  /dev/XXX mounted on /media/YYYY    when mounted
  /dev/XXX mounted                   if mounted but the mount point is not available

Please be gentle, this is my first QML patch :-)


This addresses bug 196939.
