I am on Hoary (upgraded from Warty) now and this doesn't work either.

If I insert a recorded cd-rw, nautilus asks if I want to "blank a cd" and if I
choose "yes" *something* happens (and I guess this is still the same error of
cdrecord), the cd is not blanked... I tried only twice: once the cd was ejected
and nautilus asked for a new one, the other time the cd was ejected and nautilus
hanged.

And if I insert a blank cd-rw, nautilus opens the druid, again asks to "blank",
and the effects are the same as above - the cd is ejected (and it hangs
sometimes). So apparently nautilus always tries to blank a cd.

So - shall I file a bug for ncb at gnome (last one, 169040, was closed as
non-gnome)? Or shall I provide more information?
