Title:
  Mount partitions on app access if user permission is granted

Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  New
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I think if an application wants to use a partition (for example for
  downloading or uploading something) and that partition is unmounted,
  the system should try to mount it, and if permission is granted it
  will be able to, if it needs extra privileges, it will fail of course.
  This way the user wouldnt need to click on each partition to mount it
  for the application.

  I'm using Deluge, and reported a bug there also: http://dev.deluge-
  torrent.org/ticket/1752

  A long term solution would be to add this function to Ubuntu core
  system. I dont think it would be a security hazard anyway, and it
  would increase usability.
