You can use pmount to mount a device from a terminal, which is what KDE
uses anyway. The main difference that an fstab entry makes is that it can
change the mount point that would otherwise be used.

KDE has been able to do that for a long time. It's not actually mounting
it as a drive, because Canon cameras don't use usb-storage, but the
camera:/ ioslave allows you to use it as if it was, via libgphoto2.
