on 6.2-STABLE (of a few days ago), i have this happening a couple of times with no adverse effect at all.
Burn DVD/Cd, when finished, hald detects the disk, mounts it, /dev/cd0 in /media/whatever.
i can eject the disk just fine (which in itself is weird, i think).... the device is still there...
umount /dev/cd0
works fine and off it goes. other than that, no, i havent tried to access the device in question
