Hide unpower (at least for optical devices)

Hi all, I am new to udiskie and trying to figure out if it fits my use case.

What I would like to achieve is to have a tray icon for managing removable devices and in particular I would like to manage usb sticks and cdrom. I do not want menu entries for browsing content. I want the icon to always be present on tray. And I want automounting. I would like a flat menu, but the flat menu is not showing several entries that I would like to see.

So I have started udiskie with:

udiskie -a -t -F -m nested

The main issue I am facing is that the "Unpower" entry for optical devices is quite dangerous, since it make the device unusable (e.g., it is not possible to eject CD once I press it, since it is turned off).

Is there any way to remove the unpower menu entry?

Hi,

currently it's not configurable, but this is something that is definitely on my agenda. I'm not sure if there is currently an open ticket for this, so feel free to leave it open. I can't make any promises, but I will have some time next month where I hope to get to some of the backlog. :)

Best, Thomas
