Comment (by Eben):

 Lets do two things:

  1. Render the device icon in white outline stroke, no fill
  2. Apply the warning badge to the icon (it's a triangle with a '!'
 inside...)

 I think this visual feedback should be enough; something more obtrusive
 would be annoying.  I'm not sure the actual effect premature unmount has.
 At one point, someone was mentioning caching the files so that it could
 resume automatically when it was mounted again.  If that's the case, this
 device should remain in the tray; otherwise, we should remove it after
 some reasonable timeout.  In the former case, it seems we need the option
 to force it to go away (in rollover), since the device could be lost,
 stolen, broke, or otherwise unavailable.
