There is a slightly different change. You remove the line in dvd-handler that contains --use-the-force-luke=notray (or similar - source not handy for me to check) Without that it always attempts to eject the drive so there is no need to put in that hack. The one downside with this is that if your drive cannot reload the DVD (e.g. many laptop/1U server drives) then you end up unable to continue writing to the drive. We discussed the issue on the -devel list last year and in the end must have decided to leave it be. I have actually manually removed the notray from my setup. I'm actually happy that the notray line goes away. Sorry I don't have a handy source tree to generate a patch for you.
