Removing powered device from USB port is unsafe operation. It is not
sufficient to unmount/eject drive, it must be completely powered off
before removal.

Please bring back "Safely remove" to Nautilus.

I tried 4 Transcend flashes, 1 ADATA, 2 no-name (SMI and ChipsBnk). They remain 
powered after eject - it's DANGEROUS for my (and anybody's) data.
I tried external USB-SATA Tsunami HDD - Disks does not spin down (stop) it - 
It's DANGEROUS for my (and anybody's) data.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Insert USB-flash or USB-hdd
2. Do something with this drive (copy files, move files, open files)
3. Try to Eject USB disk
Actual Results:  
USB-flash is not powered off after eject (as it did in Nautilus 3.4.2 and 2.32).
USB-HDD id not stop after unmount. Eject icon option is not present.

Expected Results:  
USB-flash powered off (its LED is off).
USB-HDD is spinned down (plates are stopped).

This bug come from Nautilus. Ubuntu is affected by this bug too (see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udisks2/+bug/1067876,
https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus/+bug/1127135), Fedora too
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=919194).


I can detach USB-flash or HDD from console with "udisks --detach /dev/sdX", but 
it is not simple way for linux-newbies.

On other laptop (Asus T101MT) Transcend flash is remounted automatically by 
Nautilus (?) after "udisks --detach /dev/sdX".
Bug exists in 12.3 too.

(https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ao5e713Ig9g_dHJBalI2b09TQ2ZNOHJOQnhFbEVXaXc).
The conclusion is very bad:  I tested Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, Ubuntu 13.04, Fedora 
18, OpenSuse 12.3. All they can't remove power from USB drives like it was in 
GNOME 2 and previous versions of GNOME 3.
