Besides umount, to keep the FS consistant, I belive it would be necessary to
actually turn off the USB stick before you remove it. With Windows and Linux
there is also a way to safety remove -power off-  a USB stick.

i've just unmounted and then pulled out various usb sticks, CF cards and sony memory sticks and have not seen any filesystem problems when i stick them back in again. never had to use camcontrol eject.
