In our Gnome intro we already point users to the Places menu [1] for
locating and mounting storage media. We don't mention the desktop
shortcuts for the devices anywhere, not even in the section about the
desktop [2]. So it seems like we can do this right away, without any doc
changes, as long as no one objects. Please comment before Sat Apr 14
20:00:00 UTC (i.e. within 48 hours) if you disagree with this change;
silence will be interpreted as agreement.
