Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

I find it pretty confusing that the context menu of (removable or non-
removable)  media is so short, as compared to what you get when right-
clicking the same drive after a click on the 'Computer' toolbar icon.

Especially from removable media (USB-Sticks, SD-Cards...) I want to
right-click the places bar to select "Properties", in order to learn
about the remaining disk space on the drive, which is very useful when
drag-dropping files and folders into a drive listed in the places side
bar.

Of course, I don't want to navigate away from my current folder (because
I might have files selected, or the view scrolled down by a specific
amount...), neither would I want to open a new window (from the side-bar
list's drive's context menu), then right-click into this new window
again and select 'Properties' from there...

For me, this is mostly about disk-space, but I'm sure there is a lot
more cases when people would need a not-so-crippled context menu in the
places list.
