That's not quite correct. The generic plugin should handle neither NFS/SMB nor 
CD/DVD filesystems. NFS/SMB filesystems are handled by two additional 
plugins.

CDs and DVDs are excluded at the moment because I don't have a good algorithm 
to identify them. I can identify CDs and DVDs by their volume name, but I 
remember that at least one of my CDs didn't have a volume name (but I have to 
check again, that was a while ago). And that doesn't solve the problem of 
different CDs/DVDs with the same name...
