This is nice, thanks for suggesting it. There are only two problems with this
solution:
1. konqueror shows (at last on my system) always a "mounted" icon (one with a
green triangle on it) - not a real *problem* but confusing
2. doing this renders the real mount-point (e.g. /mnt/floppy) useless,
because I do never need it in konqueror - everytime I mount a filesystem via
the icon I'm immediately on the filesystem. If I try to access the real mount
point without mounting it with the device icon before this solution doesn't
work.

Thanks for your this suggestion, but this is not what I was thinking of.
This solution does not make the use of konqui better AFAIK.
I thought more of a *natural* solution - why does konqui not parse the fstab
and *automatically* apply an icon and/or the option to mount it on the
context-menu. I'm no programmer so please correct me if this solution is a
bad idea...
