There will be some subtleties like how to detect disconnect. And of course it will only work for USBMS based devices, not MTP based ones.

I rather suspect that given the progress on Crostini since (amazingly for google) that it exited Beta, that sooner or later both USBMS & MTP will work normally in the Linux container. They sometimes do now if the device isn't ebabbled for Android app in External Storage in regular settings.
