Public bug reported:

Anytime you plug a usb mass storage media to you box a small pop-up appears 
suggesting to ignore images on the medium or to import them. Choosing ignore 
works perfectly ;-).
But choosing "import" open to gthumb with the new medium openend. This is nice 
for displaying images (as a third  option "display" in the pop-up could 
suggest) but bad for importing images.
Here ghtumb with its import option ( --import-photos) would be the far better 
choice: Let the user choose which images to import and to which destination. 
Same procedure as with any digital camera. 
The lates gthumb automagically detects images on usb mass storage devices. 
My suggestion in short:

The pop-up appearing whenever a usb mass storage medium is mounted
should offer three options:

1. Ignore
2. Display images - gthumb showing thumbs 
3. Import - gthumb --import-photos - the same dialog that appears when a 
digicam is connected

** Affects: gthumb (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
