The only "right" solution is for us to mandate that people down cards
before ejecting them. The physical design of pccards basically gives us
no other option. No matter how hard we try to get it "right" for
spontaneous removal, we can't win that fight.
Not to say we shouldn't try, but people should always hold foremost in
their minds the fact that there is no complete solution for this, and the
return on investment diminishes rapidly.
