Could we get this added to the http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/ FAQ? I
found this purely by accident while reading threads here - it seems
nigh on impossible to find out how to setup nautilus cd-burner even
under Linux.

I realise (now) that the above is output from
/usr/ports/sysutils/nautilus-cd-burner/pkg-message, but I've never found
it before, and not many are likely to see it, considering it will
usually be installed as dependency of gnome2, and not implicitly.
