Comment 40 for bug 28835

Please do not use the notification icon method for this. It is counter intuitive and wastes valuable screen real estate. Let's not duplicate Windows' flaws just because people are used to them.

I think the simplest way of doing this is to have the menu be device dependent, after all the device type is already being detected since the icon changes.

For ejectable media (CD/DVD/bluray/tape), have an 'eject' command, for USB flash have a 'safely remove' command, and for USB HDD have a 'power off' command.

As a less logical IMHO but equally acceptable method would be upstream's suggestion of 'eject' for everything.
