Well, I don't really disagree, it's just that on our main target it's a pain
to aggregate this kind of information from Solid. AFAIK it requires a
dependency on the running X session, and I really want to keep Solid X free.

At first I thought, "cool". But in fact I'm not so sure. Well, in any case
that couldn't replace krandrtray IMO (or at least the kcm accompanying it)
because it has much more features which couldn't be merged in the device
notifier I think. Now that's probably worth a try (probably in a branch of
the hotplug engine and the devicenotifier applet).
Regards.
