We really can't rely on the user nicely waiting for any kind of permission from our UI. There _will_ be cases when the MMC is abruptly removed. It is unacceptable for an end-user device to go down in flames whenever this happens. The issues regarding what happens when a swap device disappears from underneath have to fixed first.
