Details would be useful.
- What OS,
- What kind of CD-ROM,
- Capabilities reported by the CD-ROM drive
It was some months ago I checked this, I'll check again (maybe it works now?).
(I think cd-info gives this)
- What conditions might occur that cause failure
IIRC it was more or less randomly.
- Whether there was some other command that would have succeeded
- Whether there was an error condition reported
Will reinvestigate.

which may be why the current cdio_eject_media currently isn't
trivial. But what specific research suggests that this is far from
trivial. It might give a clue as to what needs to be done.
I compared the source of the eject command with the libcdio code and
found, that it's quite different.
Since I disabled ejecting anyway for now, it's no release blocker for
me.
