I'm curious what will happen with this patch and removable usb drives.
When I now insert a random Kingston USB key, it displays as "Kingston
DataTraveler 2.0: 4.0 GB Filesystem" and not by the volume label, which
is random and doesn't mean anything "E762-C972".

Title:
  Nautilus 'Computer' displays redundant labels

Status in GVFS:
  Invalid
Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:

Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  I am running Karmic Alpha 2

  In previous versions of Ubuntu, when navigating to the 'Computer'
  directory, nautilus would display the label of the partition, and if
  it didn't have one, then the size of the media.

  However, now (2.27.1) when I navigate to 'Computer', it displays too
  much information, such as the name of the drive etc.

  For example, before it would say:
  GENTOO

  Now it says:
  41 GB ATA Maxtor 6E040L0: GENTOO

  and instead of saying:
  BACKUP

  it says:
  500 GB ATA WDC WD5000AAKS-0: BACKUP
