Title:
Use safe mount for USB devices
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
For years ubuntu has been plagued by horrible user experience when dealing with usb drives:
- user forget to unmount device
- fs is corrupted
- user insert device back and is overwritten/lost
Luckily solution is finally available: ubuntu should use systemd-mount for all usb devices so they are
- mount only when it's really necessary
- aggressively unmounted to prevent data loss
- fscked before mounting
This will lead to much nicer situation where new users will not blame
ubuntu anymore for data loss.
