Thing is, in KDE4 it is broken, the model is all fucked up, some times it 
mounts the incorrect things or things that are already mounted (causing 
annoying dialogs) etc.

So like I said in the sprint is it is something nice to have but it has to be 
maintained, fixed and polished and that won't happen before 2.0 and there is no 
reason to believe it will ever happen (since nobody at the sprint even knew 
what it was).
