Bug Description

In Nautilus 3.4.2 (Ubuntu 12.04, 3.4.2-0ubuntu6) there was Safely remove option for any drive.
In Nautilus 3.4.2 (Ubuntu 12.10, 3.5.90.really.3.4.2-0ubuntu4.1) it is missed.
Please bring it back.

Removing powered device from USB port is unsafe operation. It is not sufficient to unmount/eject drive, it must be completely powered off before removal.

I tried 4 Transcend flashes, 1 ADATA, 2 no-name (SMI and ChipsBnk). Nautilus shows "Eject" option for them. They remain powered after eject - it's DANGEROUS for my (and anybody's) data.
I tried external USB-SATA Tsunami HDD - Nautilus shows "Unmount" option for it and does not spin down (stop) it - It's DANGEROUS for my (and anybody's) data.
