I think this is fine for a default, but I would allow superusers to mount globally. The reason is that I've needed to mount disks (particularly CD-ROMs or ZIP disks) that will need to be accessed by a workgroup. You need this flexibility, *especially* in a multiuser environment. > The .kdelnk file is a great idea; it could be automatically placed on > the desktop.

That way you only need to change the name of the file, and not any of the content. (So I'm lazy.
