OK, so I packaged a git snapshot of gvfs with the udisks2 media monitor
support merged. Works fine for me. Submitted for build.
Seems Funda tried to do this before but didn't actually check that the
codebase included the udisks2 backend. It did not.
Also had to fix some format security errors too which I'll push upstream.
Must get back to work now!!
