Yeah, I found this out, of course nothing is psychic and can prepare
for that but you do normally get a safely remove option (I haven't
mainly because I couldn't be bothered to dig any deeper into udev. It
would be easier to create just that part from scratch, I think). I am
using flush etc. but haven't fully tested it on all the filesystem
types I may use yet. I do prefer it showing me how long it takes to
copy rather than saying it's done ages before it has like on my
standard udev boxes. It may even be that users are more likely to yank
out prematurely (bar completed) with the standard setup atleast the
first time with the corrupt or missing file teaching them to get an OK
first.
