pmount-hal's job is to figure out the right options, so it should handle dvd+rw's right. Worst-case it should be changed to decide mounting ro or rw based on an hal property. > I think instead of reassigning, you should mark as "forwarded to > upstream".

Even more, debian's gnome-volume-manager is so heavily patched that reporting upstream is basically useless..
