I think the default response to system could be mount and open Removable Drives when hot-plugged. Or at least there should be a box to choose what to do, what action to take, like Nautilus do it.

There is a option to it, go to Settings --> Removable Drives and Midia (Hardware section) and in the Storage tab there are 2 options:

- Mount removable drives when hot-plugged

- Browse removable media when inserted

So, i ticked both of them, and now my usb flash drive is mount and Thunar opens.

ubuntu trusty update in 2013/12/17.

I think this problem is more about design, not exactly a bug.
