+ - For optical drives, replace "Create Disk Imageâ" with "Burn Image to Discâ"
+ - Also wanted: "Blank Discâ" dialog
+ - Part of this involves deciding on library / command-line tools to use
+
+ - Partition resizing
+ - for the udisks part, see https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51783
+
+ - Btrfs support

+ - badblocks(8) functionality
+ - Menu item: "Test Diskâ" dialog
+ - Basically, a way to do a burn-in test when you buy new disks
+ - e.g. badblocks -wsv /dev/sdb
+ - Avoid modal dialogs so multiple tests can run in parallel
+ - After confirmation (and explanation of the feature), launches a local
+ job that runs forever. Output of the job would be
+
+ [===============>--- Testing Disk: 23.1% complete ------------------] [X]
+ Pass 33: Testing with pattern 0xaa â 0 errors â 2 days, 5 hours elapsed
+
+ - When a new pass is over, the progress bar starts at 0% again
+
+ - Integrate with systemd's journal
+ - make it possible to easily view all log messages related to a device
+ - e.g. journalctl /dev/sda
+ - does this also cover messages in layers below the block layer?
+ - show exclamation icon in device tree-view and a cluebar if there are
+ _important_ and _unread_ messages
+ - define "important" (warning and above?)
+ - define "unread" (does the systemd journal have such a concept?)
+ - Disks will consume the journal APIs through (page-based?) D-Bus
+ interfaces in udisks so maybe we can put the concept of "unread"
+ into that
+ - make udisks log messages to the systemd journal
+ - with this in place, we can completely do away with modal error dialogs
+ - why? because udisksd will have logged an error message to the journal
+ - huge win
+
+ - Improve "Format Diskâ" dialog so partitions can be created
+ - Size is adjusted through a slider
+ - Need designer input
+ - Might be hard to do with current GTK+
