===============================================================================
For releases after 3.3:
* add a way for the user to remove an existing mount point
* make Job::copyBlocks() work for cases where the logical sector sizes of
source and target are not the same. This is probably fixed now. Does not
work with LVM though.
* find an elegant solution for the brokenness in design that is
Partition::sectorSize()... Either a Partition has a reference/pointer to the
Device it's on or the method is removed completely. -- Maybe the
PartitionTable should reference the Device?
* the file system support dialog is a usability nightmare
* write a setup-kcm in the style of k3b's so that the user can set the r/w
permissions of the disks there; also use kauth to update the partition table
in the kernel. that should cover all cases where we actually need root
privileges now. -- we actually also need root privs for SMART now.
* Convert the fs implementations into plugins. Redesign the support-stuff, make
that more flexible (no statics in the FS classes, some helper class or at
least an array in FileSystem).
* Add a SMART self test operation.
* Information about file system on a separate tab in the properties, unique
to the file system in use.
* let the user specify external command locations and options in the settings;
use some program and binary management setup internally like k3b has it
* parse progress information at least from e2fsck and ntfsclone... maybe others.
