brand new install of Jessie with Gnome 3 desktop from d-i.

I'm used to the prior version of udisks, and expecting: 1) insert a vfat usb
stick, 2) see her mounted on /media/[VolumeName]/, 3) with right users
permissions to write even on the root of the partition. This used to work even
with internal ext partitions provided non-root user writable folders.

Now I only get any (vfat) usb stick mounted on /media/usb0/ (not respecting
VolumeName) and only root permissions on root and all folders.
This as per standard gnome 3 gui (nautilus thru gvfs i think),

as per:

pierpaolo at trozko:~$ udisksctl mount -b /dev/sdb1
Mounted /dev/sdb1 at /media/usb0.
pierpaolo at trozko:~$ ls -l /media/usb0/
totale 1662984
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root       8192 ott 28 16:26 XXX
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root       8192 giu  4 22:27 YYY
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root    8387428 ott  3 17:01 ZZZ
....

I tried to add a polkit rule on localauthority:

pierpaolo at trozko:~$ cat /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/10-udisks2.rules
// seen /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.udisks2.policy
// adapted from /usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d/gnome-control-center.rules
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
        if ((action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-mount") &&
            subject.local &&
            subject.active &&
            subject.isInGroup ("plugdev")) {
                    return polkit.Result.YES;
            }

Anything seem to work as expected.
