Removing powered device from USB port is unsafe operation. It is not
sufficient to unmount/eject drive, it must be completely powered off
before removal.

Please bring back "Safely remove" to Nautilus.

I tried 4 Transcend flashes, 1 ADATA, 2 no-name (SMI and ChipsBnk). They remain 
powered after eject - it's DANGEROUS for my (and anybody's) data.
I tried external USB-SATA Tsunami HDD - Disks does not spin down (stop) it - 
It's DANGEROUS for my (and anybody's) data.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Insert USB-flash or USB-hdd
2. Do something with this drive (copy files, move files, open files)
3. Try to Eject USB disk
Actual Results:  
USB-flash is not powered off after eject (as it did in Nautilus 3.4.2 and 2.32).
USB-HDD id not stop after unmount. Eject icon option is not present.

Expected Results:  
USB-flash powered off (its LED is off).
USB-HDD is spinned down (plates are stopped).

This bug come from Nautilus. Ubuntu is affected by this bug too (see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udisks2/+bug/1067876,
https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus/+bug/1127135), Fedora too
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=919194).


I can detach USB-flash or HDD from console with "udisks --detach /dev/sdX", but 
it is not simple way for linux-newbies.

On other laptop (Asus T101MT) Transcend flash is remounted automatically by 
Nautilus (?) after "udisks --detach /dev/sdX".
Bug exists in 12.3 too.

(https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ao5e713Ig9g_dHJBalI2b09TQ2ZNOHJOQnhFbEVXaXc).
The conclusion is very bad:  I tested Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, Ubuntu 13.04, Fedora 
18, OpenSuse 12.3. All they can't remove power from USB drives like it was in 
GNOME 2 and previous versions of GNOME 3.

Bug description:
  In Ubuntu 12.04, I could right-click on my usb-external-harddrive's
  Unity-Task-Bar icon (launcher icon) and select "Safely Remove". Upon
  doing this, the icon would disappear and I would proceed in unplugging
  my external hard drive.

  However, since upgrading to Ubuntu 12.10, this option is no longer
  available in the context menus (Quicklists) for external drives.

  Instead, all I see is "Unmount", and after clicking "Unmount" the icon
  remains on the task-bar (launcher) and no indication is given that
  would imply that the unmount occurred successfully.

  The intent of this report is to bring back the "Safely Remove" option
  which (by making the icon disappear after selected) indicates that you
  may now safely removal your USB external hard drive (by unplugging its
  usb connector).
