[Bug 840680] Re: gnome-control-center is missing setting for action to take when removable hard drive or usb key is inserted

Do you mean if we come in with preconceived ideas like an understanding
of language? :-)

It's great that the functionality is already there, but the wording is
plain wrong. If you had 'Never prompt or start programs on media
insertion' set, then when it tried to the play the video it was simply
not doing what it said it would. That's a bug!

The fact that your choices get disabled when you tick the 'Never prompt'
box implies that those choices are now irrelevant - which says to me
that whoever designed this got the wording right but whoever implemented
it got it wrong.
