although there is no flashdrive and no external hdd mentioned there, but
at least now I know the motivation. I'm not sure about the difference
between the "temporarily mounted filesystem" and any removable storage
which is, as for me, also "temporarily" plugged into usb. However, I'm
not going to argue with those guys (who made fsh standard), Just because
 now I know the way how to put things as _I_ want them to be on _my_
system.
Now I know that /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-storage-policy.fdi
kicks ass, and the rest just doesn't matter.
