Removable media management



Is there any plan to introduce removable media management to computer:///?

Currently there's no way (within nautilus) to format removable media, or set the label on FAT/NTFS partitions.

Basic partitioning/formatting (without getting into the complexities of partitioning), would be very helpful for the standard home user, and in the case he/she chooses to format a removable drive with an ext filesystem, the resulting permission issue (namely that only root will have write access) should be resolved for the user.

These two functions are straight forward enough if you're a CLI user, but not for desktop users on Gnome based systems.

Thoughts?
