No, as I said before, we do *not* want a normal user to be able to
unmount mounted stuff from other users.

I think people are used to the eject button of the CD-ROM, too. Since
that should now work fine on the majority of drives, I do not see a
big problem here. Also, the message clearly says that the CD wasn't
mounted by you, but by <foo>. Thirdly, a default Ubuntu installation
does not mount CDs automatically at boot.
So I think leaving this as a duplicate of 35695 is fine (to cover the
last 5% of CD-ROM drives), thus I'm closing this bug as a duplicate now.
Thanks!
