Actually I think I found a good work around.  update slots will umount
any mounted drive and unload it into the magazine for proper barcode
scanning.  It does this in a non-blocking way so that if I don't pull
the drive at all, and just issue a backup to start it will re-load the
volume back into the drive and mount it.

SO really, all I need to do after marking the tape as full is issue a
update slots command.  Easy sleasy.  Of course if Kern ever changes how
this works I may be in trouble as this is not the expected use of update
slots (:
