I don't think the Gnome/udev behavior in and of itself is a problem;
there are times when a "Redetect all connected filesystems" function
would be useful, and in the absence of that, I've often started up and
immediately exited usb-creator solely for that effect. It's inconvenient
to have to physically disconnect and reconnect a drive as the only way
to get the system to notice it again.
The problem is that usb-creator does this on startup, and then if it is
to operate only on unmounted partitions, there would be none that the
user could select (because, duh, it just re-mounted all of them).
Why couldn't usb-creator just *not* do that when it starts up, and scan
for available partitions via traditional means, much like "fdisk -l"?
