I think that the future has Gnome to configure various mount options (ex. user,noatime etc) on storage devices is a very important thing that is missing from KDE 4.x.

I disagree. The reasoning - to a large extent mounting of removable media should "just work". The "user" option is clearly already set as it's KDE doing the mounting (as a regular user). As for "noatime" I doubt many users would care and would just be confused, and those that do are able to modify fstab.

Just my thoughts.

the user and noatime is just examples. Don't hang on them.
My main problem and that why i post this idea is that I have my usb sticks in non linux format (fat32 and ntfs). I have in this formats because my work is to interact with Windows systems. Mount in KDE doesn't set the right masks (specially on ntfs) so I have some problems when I plug them on Windows systems (mostly with permissions). I know that because on manually mount from fstab with right masks, these problems doesn't exist.
I haven't one stick, many times more that 2 is being used, so I don't want to have to edit fstab all the time.
Also sometime I want read-only filesystems on these removable drives.
There is no need to be on checkboxes, combo lists. Just to edit the mount line and option to save.
