Title:
  Failure to mount NTFS partition confusing and unhelpful

Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  While it is well known to developers what the following error message
  means, it is terrifying and not suitable for most end users:

  Error mounting /dev/sda2 at /media/stub/0123456789ABCDEF: Command-line `mount 
-t "ntfs" -o 
"uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,dmask=0077,fmask=0177" 
"/dev/sda2" "/media/stub/0123456789ABCDEF"' exited with non-zero exit status 
14: Windows is hibernated, refused to mount.
  Failed to mount '/dev/sda2': Operation not permitted
  The NTFS partition is in an unsafe state. Please resume and shutdown
  Windows fully (no hibernation or fast restarting), or mount the volume
  read-only with the 'ro' mount option.

  Ubuntu needs  a clearer dialog with the user without the techno babble
  (and no 'unsafe' - this is perfectly normal). In addition, if an
  acceptable solution is to 'mount the volume read-only with the 'ro'
  mount option, then a mechanism to actually do this should be provided.
