pcmanfm does this as well, though it relies on udisks2 and that now requires
systemd (on Debian, anyway).  I believe Thunar had very similar functionality.
spacefm, as some have mentioned here, also has this functionality but it allows
the use of different backends for performing the mounts.  As I recall, the
choices were pmount, udevil, udisks, udisks2, and possibly others.

Here you are a device manager script for openbox. It's called obdevicemanager. I took it from the Arch's forum, but currently the link is broken.

The bad news. It depends on udisks2, i.e. dbus.
