Lisa, [Safely Remove] = eject + REMOVE POWER from USB device.
The 'remove power' is the main issue. Removing/disconnecting ANY electronic device with power still applied is dangerous. This is the reason for [Safely Remove] option for mounted USB sticks. Without the [Safely Remove] option, the only way to SAFELY remove/disconnect a USB stick is to shutdown your system first. As I said before, the reasoning given for NOT putting [Safely Remove] is bogus and dangerous thinking. It is evidence that those who made the decision to remove the option are saying they are dumber than Windoz or other Linux OS which HAVE the option. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1067876 Title: [quantal] Missing "Safely Remove Drive" and "Eject" options from Quicklists.
