Package: gnome-volume-manager
Version: 1.4.0-4
Severity: normal

The options in gnome-volume-properties are really non-obvious for
regular user.

Some documentation should be provided to explain that (maybe available
through yelp ?).

For instance, difference between "removable drives" which can be
"hot-plugged" (1st option) and "removable media" (2nd option) are not
clear for most users.

Maybe explaining with mention or icons of USB keys and CD/DVDs would
help ?

If not improved in the GUI, at least something a bit more detailed in
the manpage or in the readme would definitely help.

Best regards
