New description:

 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.

Comment (by Zack):

 Unmount failure feedback filed as #2630.
