Step to reproduce: 1) Connect a USB drive with a lot of media content (not sure if a lot of media is really needed, but I'm not going to delete stuff from my disk to test) 2) From Nautilus right-click the device icon and choose "safely remove the device" 3) Observe that a dialog opens saying that "Volume is busy" 4) Click "Eject Anyway" 5) Observe an error dialog saying something like "Unable to stop "WDC WD10JPVX-22JC3T0" So did it fail or what? Is this good or bad? Will I corrupt my data if I just disconnect it after possibly copying some files? This is not good usability, at least. What should happen: - The device should get disconnected without errors. If not right after safely removing, but after having clicked "Eject Anyway".
