Now this might very well be something to consider: an user interface that would allow for mounting an attachable storage device under a fantasy name (something like "you have mounted a new storage device: we will automagically name it <whatever>. Do you want to change its name?"). This might be a bit more complex than it looks, but there is, I think, a potential casual-user benefit... instead of /media/<HUGE uuid>, something that can, indeed be remembered -- and intuitively understood.
