Here is my device dock, simple yet in principle should be quite effective, This allows someone to keep their desktop tidy no matter what device the mount and unmount from their computer, icons don't get muddled up yet you can still easily access your icons from the desktop.
I would even go so far and say it would be even cooler if we could make it so that unmounting is just a matter of dragging the icons either just out of the dock or somehow make it easy to unmount the devices by dragging them somewhere. That would clearly make using removable devices easier to use and leave the desktop uncluttered. I could also imagine some fancy animation for the icons, so you will get notified when a new device has been mounted. Maybe even hide and slide-in the dock when it's not used, so it could also be above other windows. Just some random thoughts :)

That would be a nice addition to my Ubuntu desktop. Hopefully something like this will make it into 8.04. :)
And the unmounting suggestion would be a nice extra touch!
