Bug Description

A usb-disk can be mounted by a user using pmount command, after which, an icon
will appear on desktop. However, the same user, when trying to umount the disk
using right click on the icon, was shown an error dialog: "can't open /dev/sda".

The disk is in fact umounted succesfully. The error dialog is unnecessary.

The error message does not come from umount, but from eject, because Breezy
tries to eject a device.
