Easy mounting of Images like ISO and CUE

Implemented
I'm a big fan of Images like .iso. However it is not very easy to mount these Images.
Developer comments
There is already right click->open with "archive mounter" in Gnome, however it currently has a major bug:

I feel there should be a Tool in Nautilus and Dolphin which allows mounting Images by double Click or something similar. (This feature exists int MacOS). Or with a right click on the I think that would be a very useful Tool for every one.
A good example for this is CDemu.
I know there are some other good programs, but I think that would be the easiest way

"Mount Image" avaiable in Right-Click Menu
Written by

I should be able to right-click a disk image and select "Mount Image" in the context-sensitive section (just as right-clicking on a disk image provides the "Write to Disk..." option).

Spruce up gisomount and extend
Written by

Gisomount was created to make this an easy process. It needs a little love and attention, but offered things like md5sum browsing etc. Would make a good GSoC project.

gmount-iso
Written by

I use Gmount-iso to do just that.
sudo apt-get install gmountiso
But I also think that it could be more obvious to do that etc.
Maybe Gmount-iso should be available by default, under right-click on images, like proposed.

Solution #3: Mount it automatically once the user double-clicks the ISO file
Written by
dexter_greycells
the 24 Oct 09 at 07:41.
When the user selects the ISO file (through the keyboard arrow keys, Tab key or a single click) in nautilus a pop-up should come up asking the user to 'Double-click' the ISO file to mount it.

In the form of a python script for nautilus actions.
http://www.technicalbloke.com/iso_mount.py
I don't have time to do the unmount command too but it should be easy to adapt if you know a little python, consider that homework & pls post me a copy :)
I think it would be nice if Ubuntu came with some more useful nautilus action scripts and a nicer way of adding/removing them. At the moment getting them in and out is more of a pain than it needs to be. It ought to be as easy as Firefox (if not easier!) to install plugins, maybe then people would make more.
