Bug description:
The quicklist for USB storage devices currently show two confusing
options 'eject' and 'safely remove'. In user testing these two
options have been proven to be problematic. Rationalise to single
option.
Desired solution:
- Remove the "Safely remove" option from the quicklist.
- Rename the "Eject" option to "Safely Eject" (note: although the user
is not strictly ejecting the USB key, this is understood terminology,
and the same terminology as used in Windows)
- After a the USB storage device has been "Safely Ejected", issue a
NotifyOSD notification that says "The “[name of USB storage device]”
device can now be safely removed from the system."
----------------------------------
Note from User Testing:
In user testing, participants didn't understand the difference between
these two options.
