Public bug reported:

For years ubuntu has been plagued by horrible user experience when dealing with 
usb drives:
- user forget to unmount device
- fs is corrupted
- user insert device back and is overwritten/lost

Luckily solution is finally available: ubuntu should use systemd-mount for all 
usb devices so they are
- mount only when it's really necessary
- aggressively unmounted to prevent data loss
- fscked before mounting

This will lead to much nicer situation where new users will not blame
ubuntu anymore for data loss.

** Affects: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu)
