It might not be a good idea to merge the snapshots feature into storage for the following reasons:
- Disk management and snapshots are different in functionality. Snapshots is in fact more similar to Backups than to Storage. - Snapshots already has a subsubmenu with 2 entries. Further nesting into Storage will create an undesirable 2-level nesting. Or two tabs at the top which are separate enough to be listed as two different apps. - Operating systems that support snapshots do not combine it with storage (Yast2 in OpenSuse and Time Machine in macOS) - Once we open up the app store, we might have other applications which do snapshots for different filesystems. Then snapper integrated into storage might seem like preferential treatment to Btrfs. We did merge the udiskie app into storage, since it is a utility related to disk management. -- Regards, Joseph Nuthalapati
