Sorry, current file-selector doesn't support removable media on Linux. Even if the users knows about /media (which she shouldn't need to), FileSel still only show mounts as regular folders.
If this miraculously isn't true for Ubuntu I'd like to know how so.

I am sorry for arguing, perhaps I just do not understand the issue right, but what is wrong with

"FileSel still only show mounts as regular folders"

? I always thought that this is a big advantage of unified posix filesystem?

Quote:

And the names below /media are *POSIX STANDARD* - I haven't picked them arbitrarily or because they happen to be true on my current favourite distro du jour.

OK, I am convinced. Anyway, have I got it right that your proposal in fact covers two areas:

- directory icons
- directory history droplist initial content

?
