Description

When an external disk (say, a USB stick) is plugged in, the user should be gently proposed to access it (read: mount it and open a Nautilus window in there).

By default, Gnome mounts external devices ; that’s desactivated in Tails, but a less drastic solution would be better.

Search what Gnome3 proposes in terms of configuration.
