I tried to do that today. The slice isn't 3d, but an ordinary pie-chart,
and you switch through the mounts via the left mouse button (i think the
popups are controled by the panel). And ther's text next to the pie
showing the free blocks.

I agree it's more useful that way. At least most of the time...
