Not just floppy ;) but in general, the way to use devices in KDE is no longer to create a desktop file for them (for explicit mount/unmount), but rather to use the GUI provided on top of Solid (in the systray; in dolphin; etc). I wonder if anyone still uses device desktop files? AFAIU you need an entry in fstab to be able to mount anything as a user, and the places model in dolphin shows everything from fstab...

We can merge the translations of the desktop files from kde-baseapps. Only question mark, the license: the translations for these messages are currently merged with the translations of all .desktop files from kde-baseapps. But given that they are translations of messages from lib/konq, which seems to be LGPL, it should be fine, right?

Those who build their KDE software with kdesrc-build, whose standard KF5 config includes kde-baseapps, might now have noticed the issue yet.
