I have Ubuntu 12.04.3 with GNOME 3.4 and udisks 1.0.4-5ubuntu2.1. With
this software I can do a Safely remove of a USB-flash or external USB-
HDD from nautilus (3.4.2-0ubuntu8) and from gnome-disk-utility
(3.0.2-2ubuntu7).

In modern linux distros (such as Ubuntu 13.04, 13.10, Mageia 4, Fedora
19, OpenSuse 12.3) there is no Safely remove option in Nautilus (see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udisks2/+bug/1067876 and
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60293).

In gnome-disks Safely remove / Poweroff is appeared again (from 3.8, see
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=675542), but it does not
spin-down external USB-HDD.

In some linux distros I can spin-down my disk with "udisks --detach
/dev/sdX", but it is not user-friendly.

So please, enable spin-down on the udisks side.

I understand that external SATA (and IDE) HDDs are hot-pluggable and
hot-swappable, but it is not comfortable for me to detach rotating
drive.
