ChangeLog:
- All settings in the drive edit dialog are now instant apply
This is a cool feature, but we should keep it optional. Our primary audience are Windows users, and they are not used to that. Heck, even I am not used to it, I am used to be able to play around with stuff in dialogs, and than press CANCEL. In fact, KDE is not instant apply, so I would argue that even most Linux users are used to that.
I'd argue that we need to support instant apply to integrate with GNOME, but to default to the classic OK/CANCEL for now, until we can figure how and when to enable one or the other behaviour.
