#2629: Removable media with lots of data cannot be unmounted

Reporter: Zack | Owner: tomeu
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: high | Milestone: Untriaged
Component: journal-activity | Version:
Keywords: | Verified: 0
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
The journal tries to index everything on a removable disk when it is
inserted. It also doesn't allow that disk to be removed while this is
happening. It's been chugging away on my 1GB stick for a several minutes,
and for a large disk this could take ages. When an unmount is requested,
indexing should stop.
Additionally, there should be some feedback for an unmount failure other
than "after the UI stopped responding for several seconds, the disk icon
didn't go away".
