Documentation somewhere?

First off, thanks a lot for an awesome app. Great to have open source file encryption on Android.
Is there a readme or documentation somewhere? I can't seem to figure out how the app works. Or maybe I'm seeing a bug.
I started with "Create local volume". I created a new folder, gave a password. Then I'm able to "decrypt" and "browse" that folder. I uploaded a file to it, and I see it encrypted on the disk. However, the mount option doesn't seem to work for me, or I'm misunderstanding how it works.
I figured it would work like *nix mount. I'd provide the password, and then browsing the filesystem I'd be able to see the decrypted files. But when I tap "view mounted" I see an empty directory.
I'm running CyanogenMod 10.1.3-mako, Android 4.2.2.

I also can't figure out how to open an image inside my encrypted container. All I can figure out is how to upload files to the encrypted folder and then "export" them again.
I imagined there was some way I could mount the encrypted container as I would on Ubuntu, so I could browse the files as usual, open them as normal, etc. Then when I unmount, they vanish as far as the phone is concerned.

OK, my bad, looks like I'm experiencing #47. Apologies, didn't read all the bug reports before filing.
Can we leave this as a feature request for documentation? :-)
