Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nautilus
in 10.04 (20100224 development branch) if you plug in a usb memory stick you
can unplug it by selecting either "unmount" or "eject" or "safely remove"
options in the nautilus right-click menu. But if you plug-in a usb external
disk you only have "unmount" and "safely remove" options.
I think only the "safely remove" entry should be displayed to avoid confusion.
In fact the "umount" option is only useful if you want unmount the device and
the mount it again whereas selecting "safely remove" force you to unplug and
plug the device again to mount it (but I think it's an acceptable behaviour for
a typical user).
Eject button is not useful in case of usb memory stick (I haven't found any
difference between "eject" and "safely remove") but only with cd-rom drives.

unmount, eject and safely remove options are misleading
