     This feature is working very well with xfce4 on Debian Wheezy.
If the partitions on the USB disk are labelled, they get mountpoints
by the label, on /media. This is exactly the behaviour I like.
Yes.  On wheezy.  Which does suggest that we should be able to
resurrect old code and make it work on devual jessie.

But I see that people are already discussing how this should happen
using new code such as vdev.

I understand from other posts that libudev-compat, which comes with vdev, will suffice.

However I think it would be better for this application to be triggered by inotify and find information on the partitions from libblkid. I don't really know what libudev provides; my understanding is that it is second hand information and services, just for the sake to provide yet another interface. Instead both inotify and libblkid are plain Linux tools.
