Actually one issue, but not related to MATE:
Please check if on a system with only Mate
and not additionally XFCE or GNOME you have
harddrives accessible. I removed both (XFCE
and GNOME) from the system and as a normal
user my unmounted disks disappeared from
the system view. Not bad, but this has
happened with other WMs/DMs before so I
just assume something is missing.

Still good to go though.
