He probably means that the OS should perhaps automount and open a userland 
file management window on device connect.   I wrote some scripts to do this 
and it is much nice, especially for my children, to be able to get stuff 
happening automatically when they connect USB devices.

BTW the recent FC3 stuff has broken my offering below (automount does not 
mount the drive now until hotplug scripts are finsihed (!)), I will be making 
an update shortly.
