It hadn't occured to me, but this is a great "work-around".  If you can
modify the FTp server to talk to the disk using mtools rather than a
regular file system, you never have to mount it, so you never have to
worry about eject, etc :-)

Ah the joys of people who look for the easy solution! :-) Sometimes I
overcomplicate :-)
