[Bug 860281] Re: Always showing "Open Shotwell" button for SD Card storage can be harmful
** Description changed:
- In bug #771757, it is reported,
+ In bug #771757, the following is reported:
"Using an Android device, Shotwell scans the entire directory for pictures. It also picks up pictures used by apps. Whereas it should only pick up pictures taken by the camera and sent by bluetooth.

As it is right now, Shotwell can pick up and remove pictures from the device which damage or make unusable applications on the phone. Requiring a reinstall of the application."
Nautilus always shows the "Open Shotwell" button for such storage.
- Currently this leads to the problem described for Shotwell, but even
