For some users (myself included), Disk Arbitrator is left intentionally activated most of the time. A typical process then becomes temporarily disabling it when mounting a disk, mounting a .dmg-image for installing software, and similar.

It's easy enough to disable it when need be, but it's also very easy to forget to reenable it afterwards. For this reason, it could be interesting with a sort of "snooze button"-type functionally, only temporarily deactivating. Reactivation could then be based on time (20 seconds?), activating after the first successful mount, or a combination (reactivate after mount, but 5 minute timeout?).

This would make it both easier and less work to leave it activated most of the time, yet easily allow mounting of a single volume when need be, without failing to remember to activate.
