I agree with Sven that a menu entry for nautilus-cd-burner would be helpful for the new user trying to burn a CD. On the other hand, nautilus-cd-burner is not quite what a new user would expect when opening an item in the applications menu. (It just brings up a verbose alert and then a completely blank window, which can be confusing to a first-time user.) I think the ideal way to use nautilus-cd-burner is through Nautilus and gnome-volume-manager. It would be great if we had a standalone CD-burning app in the menu. Unfortunately I don't think Coaster is fully working yet, so for now nautilus-cd-burner is the only option on the Debian GNOME desktop. (By the way, gnome-volume-manager ran fine on my old PPC system...)
