I'd think that dbus-activated plasmoids don't need this, since they come and 
go already (makes them essentially hidden).

For the devicenotifier, it has to stay, since it could be configured to show 
non-removable devices as well, so the logic currently in there is fine, and we 
can rely on the status.
