We are dealing with (and you originally quoted a topic about) Video
Storage Groups, not recording ones.  The advantages generally hold
true, but some of the assumptions about how it should work need to be
considered differently for videos.  Namely, do we go all Storage
Groups for videos?  Do we allow a local mount as well?  If so, how do
we handle local media that is not part of a Storage Group?  These are
unanswered questions and we are trying to figure out how best to make
this work.  So, in short, take this as a "we're trying to make Video
Storage Groups work in a friendly way, and trying to figure out the
most user-friendly way of presenting that information."

It's not a given that Video Storage Groups will be enabled for .22,
there's still a *lot* of work to be done for them.  But if they are,
there are open questions that need to be figured out before then.
