This thread, and the response above in particular, have me baffled, maybe
because its massive shifts from KDE3 paradigms have caused me to use KDE4 so
rarely, and Dolphin never. Windows Explorer has context menu items for safe
removal of removable media, similar to Konq 3 in local files mode. What is
this stiff dev objection to having similar in Dolphin?
