Title:
Media in 'Places' side bar should have same context menu as in
'Computer'
Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
Invalid

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Binary package hint: nautilus
I find it pretty confusing that the context menu of (removable or non-
removable) media is so short, as compared to what you get when right-
clicking the same drive after a click on the 'Computer' toolbar icon.
Especially from removable media (USB-Sticks, SD-Cards...) I want to
right-click the places bar to select "Properties", in order to learn
about the remaining disk space on the drive, which is very useful when
drag-dropping files and folders into a drive listed in the places side
bar.
Of course, I don't want to navigate away from my current folder
(because I might have files selected, or the view scrolled down by a
specific amount...), neither would I want to open a new window (from
the side-bar list's drive's context menu), then right-click into this
new window again and select 'Properties' from there...
For me, this is mostly about disk-space, but I'm sure there is a lot
more cases when people would need a not-so-crippled context menu in
the places list.
