Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: usb-creator

Prerequisites:

- target usb stick or other device is connected, mounted and recognized by 
usb-creator
- creator as a possible target (listed is "Disk to use" selector)
- some other process is modifying amount of free space on this device with 
noticeable speed (for example, many big files are copied into it)

Steps to reproduce:

1. Select a source *.iso or CD in "Source ..."
2. Select a target usb flash stick in "Disk to use"
3. Select "Store in reserved extra space" radio-button
4. Define some non-default amount of extra storage space by "How much" gauge

Current behavior:
As soon an amount of free space on non-selected target (externaa device with 
significant amount of space, like external hard drive, is connected, mounted 
and also recognized by usb-l hard drive) is changed by background process, data 
in "Disk to use" is updated, but also "How much" gauge is reset to it's default 
position. In case of files copying, this is a matter of second, so there is no 
time to press "Make Startup Disk" button before "How much" is reset.

Expected:
Changing of amount of free space on other possible targets  (i.e. not selected) 
should not cause reset of "How much" gauge.

** Affects: usb-creator (Ubuntu)
