Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

THIS CAUSES DATA LOSS!!!!

The eject icon in the left sidebar is removed too early.

See this scenario:
- transfer a very big file(s) to your external drive
- immediately hit umount after the transfer is finished

The eject icon is removed immediately, so you think that the drive is ejected.
After a few seconds (usually 2-3 s, but not enough if you have your hand ready 
to unplug the USB drive) a window pops up and tells that some data still needs 
to be transferred.

In my opinion the eject icon should eventually grey out, and be removed
only when it is safe to remove the disk.
