I'm mounting and unmounting through the stick icon's menu on Xfce desktop.
Maybe a fancy file chooser dialogue stays around analyzing the directory,
as you suspect? But I'm worried my Gmail in Firefox is capable of stealing
files off my USB stick.

To get an idea of what's going on, you can use "lsof":
tomas@trotzki:~$ lsof /dev/sda1
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE
I can replicate this, by trying to send Gmail to myself in Firefox,
attaching a binary on a mounted USB stick. After the attachment supposedly
was uploaded, I tried to unmount the stick, but it blocked. "lsof | grep -i
KINGSTON" then shows a total of 129 lines from "x-www-browser". This lasted

Yes, closing Firefox does allow the stick to unmount cleanly, but I still
worry.
