[Bradford] Google: Drop support for ext2/3/4 from Files.app (cros-disks)

[Brian A]

Good news there.
 The developers run Linux, its like an attack on the lifeblood of the
project. It's like saying, oh you're developing this for consumers but
you're not going to be able to use the product you are working on with your
OS. I'm surprised that Google is being so insensitive. Maybe they are
getting more evil!
