Title:
  FORMAT option should be removed from mounted devices on the launcher

Status in Unity:
  Fix Released
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  It is way too simple to "format" a mounted usb drive from the
  launcher. At the moment the right click options contain Open, Format
  and Eject in that order.

  I believe that format should be removed as it is way too easy to click
  by mistake; it sits inbetween two of the most common actions which
  means it's very easy to click by mistake when clicking either of the
  other two menu items.

  I have just tested it, however, and it hasn't done anything, so I
  guess that's a bug in itself.

  I also feel it might be pertinant to rename it to something like "wipe
  data" as "format" isn't a very well known phrase amongst new users.
