If unmounting an open drive, it will have an error

[JD]

Binary package hint: nautilus

I try to unmount an external USB hard drive by clicking on the small eject icon in nautilus next to the drives icon in the places side pane.

It came up with an error because the drive is still in use. This is true because the drive is the folder that is currently open in nautilus.

I expected the drive to be unmounted and nautilus directing me to another folder.

I consider this a low importance bug as instead of displaying an error, nautilus should redirect me to another folder THEN unmount the drive.

I am using Ubuntu 8.10 with all the latest updates.

Output from: apt-cache policy nautilus
