Originally, ejecting a cdrom from a qemu guest entailed passing 'eject cdrom' to the monitor. But since qemu added the -drive option, more than one cdrom can be specified, so just using 'cdrom' isn't explicit enough.
The attached patch updates media change/eject to use the current qemu syntax. The new generated commands look something like "eject ide0-cd1", with the name derived from device target and bus type.
I'm a bit unclear -- will this break for people using older versions of qemu/kvm?
Looks very much like it will. If we're lucky this change in monitor syntax occurred at the time the -drive command was introduced. In which case its easy to conditionalize based on the whether that's in use or not.
