Comment (by Eben):
Alright, reconsidering the use case here, I think there's one more obvious
thing we should do first. If the device is busy, we shouldn't even
provide an unmount option within the secondary palette (or, at least, we
should disable it...I'm not sure which is better). We should do this when
either a) a write is going on or b) files on the disk are open. I don't
think the automatic unmounting is a good idea; it would be better to have
them wait until it's no longer busy to actually unmount, so they get
direct feedback when it's safe to remove the device.
It seems that it would be best to put a badge on the device to indicate
that it's in use. I'll have to think about what that should look like.
