well done Benedikt!!

it mainly works, there is anyway an issue i discovered ...

case:

0) attach an usb device
1) run thunar
-- thunar doesn't find it
2) remove the device
-- thunar crashes

error: Thunar-ERROR **: file thunar-shortcuts-model.c: line 1160
(thunar_shortcuts_model_volumes_removed): assertion failed: (hp !=
NULL)
aborting...
Trace/breakpoint trap

it works perfectly if i attach the device when thunar is running.

i'm sorry if i'm annoying you already with this :/ ...

ciao
