The reason why the user thought dragging the USB key to the trash would eject it, is probably that he has prior experience with Macintosh, where the trashcan icon ejects removable media (CDs, floppies, memory cards, USB drives).
However I agree with obrowny that this behavior per se is unintuitive and inconsistent, and it's only by residual Mac experience that the user was expecting that behavior.
