Title:
  eject -i 0. while being accepted no longer has any effect, drive
  remains locked

Status in eject package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Test case
  with No disk in drive run eject -i 0
  will return - "CD-Drive may be ejected with device button"
  Insert a disk, let drive 'settle', try to eject with device button
  The disk is not ejected.

  One reason for wanting - 
  Many older cd/dvd drives on laptops, particularly slot loading slimline, can  occassionaly not recognize one disk or another.
  Without an unlocked drive there is no way to eject except reboot & eject from during the reboot process.

  Additionally really don't follow the logic of setting locked as
  default in the 1st. place, apps that are using the drive should lock
  it themselces & can't see the possibility of inadvertent ejection in a
  travel scenario as being all that likely
