I'm doing 'this' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=73770):
a headless server that goes to sleep when idle, and accepts optical and
usb removable devices.

I've implemented the <playerid> path detection, so any player that is
powered on over the cdplayer's playlist now makes the DVD drive flagged
as in use. This info is used to keep the server alive, and to inform
users that they should not eject the CD.

Seems to work. There is a fairly large window for error in my system.
Device activity detection runs very minute, so a user in a hurry is very
likely to yank off a device that has recently changed from idle to
active.

BTW, thanks for a most excellent plugin.
