(Get the code!)
And as I expected, you do not see the loop device anymore when issuing the mount command.
As I explained above, this is likely an issue with Nautilus and/or Ext4. Notice that the loop device never showed up immediately in Nautilus and was visible via the mount command. I'm not so sure this is a usb-creator issue.
If usb-creator creates a device and then removes it, the system should pick this up. This is all done as a popen call to the mount and umount command, and does not involve dbus at this point. So, perhaps the issue is around the filesystem, as we are dealing direclty with mount.
What happens if you issue the 'sync' command from a consle, or tell Nautilus to reload/refresh its view?
