Title: Missing "Safely Remove Drive" option from Quicklists. Only have "Eject". Status in GVFS: New Status in The Linux Mint Distribution: New Status in Nautilus: New Status in abstraction for enumerating and managing block devices: Won't Fix Status in Unity: Invalid Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “udisks2” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “udisks2” package in ALT Linux: Unknown Status in Fedora: Unknown Status in “nautilus” package in Gentoo Linux: New Status in “nautilus” package in Mandriva: Confirmed Status in openSUSE: Confirmed 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).
