Comment(by tomeu):

 Well, that's some kind of feature ;)

 The device icon should appear in the Journal UI when the device is mounted
 in the DS. Now, the job of the Journal is to do everything possible so the
 device is mounted in the system if and only if the device is mounted as
 well in the DS. This seems to fail if some other process keeps the device
 busy. Is there a way to force an unmount?

 As I said, it is planned to stop accessing removable devices through the
 DS in the next release, so I don't know if this ticket is relevant now.
