I updated to the most recent svn version and it's very, very nice now.
I won't insist on the padding if nobody else complains.

It seems somehow the plugin confuses the values now, ie. mount point,
filemanager and name are mixed up, not sure what exactly is happening
there. I assume this is a typo or something and will be fixed soon. :)

Ha! Meter is perfect. And the translation is nice. Just two tiny
things:

Please change "Feier Speicher anzeigen" to "Freien Speicher
anzeigen", note the accusative 'n'.

And I would ask you to localize the name of the plugin, as it appears
in the "Add item" dialog and the context menu.
