Public bug reported:
An external disk device is declared in '/etc/fstab' with 'auto,nofail,users'
options:
UUID=aa083302-...-b66c0715eaf1 /media/ushakov/TOSHIBA_SYSTEM ext4
nodev,nosuid,auto,nofail,users 0 2
It is then successfully mounted automatically upon being connected.
It can further be unmounted successfully without `sudo` from command
line, e.g.: `umount $mount_point`.
Meanwhile an attempt to unmount this device from Nautilus/Files UI
results in an "Authentication Required" message: "Authentication is
required to unmount External USB3.0 (/dev/sdc3) mounted by another
user".
The expected Nautilus/Files UI behavior would be that the disk device is
unmounted silently or just with an non-intrusive notification upon a
click on the "Unmount" button near the device label.
