The OS should still automount, as this is what happens on the XO. In
addition to this, sugar should detect the mounting and add the device
to the journal.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: sugar

When inserted a USB Flash key is not seen by Sugar/Sugar-Emulator (it should show up the bottom bar of Journal, see http://en.flossmanuals.net/Sugar/BackingUp), instead the USB Flash drive is mounted by the underlying OS.

At a (wild) guess there will need to be some HAL tinkering to ensure that Sugar gets notified and the underlying OS does not.
