Comment 63 for bug 28835

I am very pleased to hear that. Ubuntu should help new users to distinguish between unmounting filesystems, disconnecting a whole device or ejecting its removable. "Keep them stupid" is not Ubuntu.

I wonder that there was not a single comment mentioning the "Disk Mounter" panel applet. It is not very up-to-date, but still helpful. For enhancing ideas see or edit: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/8789/ . Though for me a "Places" menu with eject buttons would be an nice alternative.
