Uhm... my poit was rather that "not all" USB devices (actually quite a few) have a phyisically meaningful "eject" function, so that in principle Nautilus (or hal or whatever) should display -and issue- an eject command only on devices which are "eject capable". I understand the point for displaying "eject" instead of "unmount", as probably newbies have no clue about what mounting/unmounting means, and that probably this is again an issue of finding a balance between user friendliness and UI dumbification. but unless we are capable of detecting if a device can be ejected, I think that umount is the right guy to call "behind the scenes". Anyway, install the backported package to have everything working form the GUI.
