Excellent, thank you, I shall have to try this tonight.

And I have now found that the work machine *does* have both udisks and  
udisks2 loaded.

The Ubuntu repos only have e17 anyway, so for end-users like me there  
is no choice.

Building e19 from source isn't an option: I did try but it was  
experimental and needed all kinds of libraries in versions waaay too  
far ahead of my Ubuntu platform. One day some kind soul will build e19  
for Ubuntu and add in all the dependencies like udisks/2, a working  
connman, default UTF-8 support, and all the bells and whistles that  
are needed to make it work as it's supposed to.

Plus from discussions here it's clear that there is still an  
impressive amount of dev work going on, so perhaps e19 isn't at an  
end-user-ready state yet. I should have more time in the next year...
