There is a bug indeed after further checking : "Only automatically mount
removable media that has been manually mounted before" condition is inverted :

 - when unchecked only previously mounted devices will get mounted/unmounted
based on the other two checkbox
 - when checked any device will get mounted/unmounted based on the other two
checkbox

Btw the backing data for this service is in ~/.config/kded_device_automounterrc
You can check or remove the file to wipe any saved history.

I like your suggestions, I will add them to my fix.

That is the case already.
