I used k3b last night on F10.  Only one issue and that is a reported 
upstream bug with verify and auto-eject.  It seems that k3b isn't 
waiting until the disk is settled before trying to access it with some 
burners.

A disk isn't mounted when it is inserted if it is blank.  In KDE, I get 
asked what to do with a full disk.  Last night I was playing with 
burning and to test the DVD image, I ended up using /dev/sr0.
