Yes, that was something I took into account when I'vge created
"/media:". However, people typing "/dev TAB" will also be annoyed,
because it could complete to "/dev/" and to "/device:".

Meanwhile, I'm discussing with myself, whether "/mtp:" is acceptable. It
is the superior protocol. I hope I will win the discussion :-)

Best regards, Michael.
