Martin,
What do you mean with "This would break desired access..." ?

The fix committed, is it a proper solution to the problem, or is it just
a dirty quick fix?

Shouldn't USB sticks be mounted in /mnt/ as they're probably just
temporarily mounted?

/media/         Mount points for removable media such as CD-ROMs (appeared in 
FHS-2.3).
/mnt/           Temporarily mounted filesystems.

Title:
  Guest account can read/write in /media/

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  The guest account can everything under /media/.
  Is the guest account really supposed to be able to access and read all the 
files on the host computer?

  If yes, then is the guest account really really supposed to be able to write 
to /media/ ?
  Shouldn't the guest be limited to his temporary home in /tmp/ ?
