You'll be glad, Simon Huggins just uploaded an xfdesktop with your patch :)

By the way (and this is a new thread I guess), for some devices it's ok to
have eject and umount. The only one I'm thinking of is RW CD/DVD where if the
cd is mounted you can't blank it. Now you want to unmount it but you can only
eject it, so you do that and reinsert it. Now you have activated automounting,
and hop, restart the loop.

Ok you can disable automounting for that time, but having a way to unmount
without ejecting (ok, pmount or exo-unmount works too, but from UI...) would
be nice.

But I agree this is not the same problem.
