Discussed with David, and we decided that eventually we want to have the current behaviour, but only once we can reliably detect through DMI data that a port is external. For now we disable the detaching for the "eject" button/menu option and instead offer "savely remove drive" in the context menu (for devices that really need it). Slightly worse user experience, but safe.
