 the future the reformatting step may also provide a way to name the device
 and assign it a color pair for identification in the interface.  This
 should only appear for writable media.

 Well, any UI which allows renaming/color assignment will naturally have a
 "reformat" button.  It can also have a "cancel" button as well to cover
 that case.  The window itself can contain some small text indicating that
 it the action will erase any content on the device.
