Looks good - a couple of notes/questions.
I'm not happy about poking the device directly from the main thread of the daemon to avoid lockups/blocking io. Right now we don't do any IO at all from the daemon - all IO is done from either programs started from udev rules or from separate job processes.
Long term, I want to be able to do IO from separate threads inside the daemon (instead of launching helper processes). But that requires reworking the internals - we should have an abstract Job class with ThreadedJob (to run code in a separate thread) and ProcessJob (to run code in a helper binary - just like most jobs today).
Since this particular case is fairly safe, let's just do it here and then we can move it to a threaded job once the internals has been reworked.
I'm curious what happens when you unmount/eject the disc, turn off automounting, insert a new disc, then mount it manually with mount(8). Is the door the locked?
