Public bug reported:

Hello

When I use nautilus in ubuntu  bionic (version 18.04), I can mount with
mouse clicks an ntfs partition. That's wonderful!

But nautilus forgets to inform me that the partition is read-only!!!!!

So, a few hours later, when I need to write, I have a style message

"/media/Commun1$ mkdir TEST
mkdir: impossible de créer le répertoire «TEST»: Système de fichiers accessible en lecture seulement
"

I then try silly repairs like
chmod -R 777 /media/Commun1

Remember that the mount command clearly indicates the cause of the problem.
Why is not it so well reported by nautilus?
sudo mount /dev/sda28 /media/Commun1
The disk contains an unclean file system (0, 0).
Metadata kept in Windows cache, refused to mount.
Falling back to read-only mount because the NTFS partition is in an
unsafe state. Please resume and shutdown Windows fully (no hibernation
or fast restarting.)

Thanks.
