I know very well Steve. And that one is already too much for me (I look in dmesg and use pmount). I just wonder whether your nice solution is enough for a wider audience used to have things popping up around all the time. I guess it's not, as much as setnet is not a solution to manage networks palatable to a wider audience, as much as apt-get is not the tool used by the large majority of users to install packages, and so on. Tinkerers will always be fine. But a distro that aims to be universal like Devuan must also cater for those who are not willing to tinker around, IMHO.
