I agree.. The patch will modify the same key but from Nautilus, not from
magicdev..

So, a better logic would be :
-if magicdev is running, keep current behaviour (ie open a new window
when CD is mounted)
-if magicdev is not running (non RedHat system), if mount is done from
Nautilus, open a new window (this setting can be controlled by a
preference in Nautilus Preferences window). If unmount is done by
nautilus, eject CDs..
