OK, I see what you mean :)
But then, no need to number the disksmore than what is done today. We just need 
that,
when we display the "root", we see in the right pane some new fields: CD name, 
number,
size, and other that we can find in any CD burning tool.

And add the "root" that already exists, but that is hidden because there was no 
need for
it.
