Upon doing this, the icon would disappear and I would proceed in unplugging my external hard drive. However, since upgrading to Ubuntu 12.10, this option is no longer available in the context menus (Quicklists) for external drives. Instead, all I see is "Unmount", and after clicking "Unmount" the icon remains on the task-bar (launcher) and no indication is given that would imply that the unmount occurred successfully. The intent of this report is to bring back the "Safely Remove" option which (by making the icon disappear after selected) indicates that you may now safely removal your USB external hard drive (by unplugging its usb connector).

Now I have to manually unmount four partitions on my 2 TB external disk every time I want to remove it. Expected behaviour - when it's detected that the user is ejecting a partition that is on an external drive containing more partitions, it should offer to safely remove the whole device. Alternatively there should be two options upon right clicking a drive icon - "unmount only the partition" and "safely remove master device".
