That is something that might be worth fixing. The drive mount applet
gets all the drive images from gnome-vfs (using
gnome_vfs_drive_get_icon and gnome_vfs_volume_get_icon). If gnome-vfs
is changed to provide better icons for unmounted drives/volumes, that
will fix their display in the applet and Nautilus.
