Description Ivo Martins 2004-01-20 19:14:37 UTC 
When mounting a new removable media drive, such as a data cd, nautilus
should try to find an empty space on the desktop to place the new icon for
the removable media.

Or it could do an automatic "clean up by name", well this brings another
problem, some users like the disposition of the icons just the way they
are, so maybe an option for "locking" the icons or automatically cleaning
up them when itens are moved in and out from the desktop could be a good
idea, those whom not choose that option, get the new added icon of
removable media to an empty space, if possible.
