            Bug ID: 16546
           Summary: Option to format non-root partitions and removable
                    drives
    Classification: Xfce Core
           Product: Thunar
           Version: 1.8.11
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Medium
         Component: General
          Assignee: xfce-bugs at xfce.org
          Reporter: philipz85 at hotmail.com
  Target Milestone: 1.8.13

In addition to thunar providing disk level options like eject and unmount in
the context menu, it would be useful to also give the option to format a
partition.

The context menu entry would try to execute one of these commands, based on the
availability of the app in this order.

`gnome-disks --block-device [device] --format-device`
`mintstick -m format -u [device]`
`gparted [device]`

This functionality is available in Nemo, Nautilus, Finder, Windows Explorer.
