But I think libvirt can actually work correctly with what qemu offers today. qemu returns an error if the medium cannot be removed with the 'eject' command and it only sends an eject request to the guest. With this error, libvirt can know that the DEVICE_TRAY_MOVED event doesn't mean that the medium has removed, but that it needs to issue another 'eject' command. If this isn't implemented correctly in libvirt today, this needs a libvirt fix rather than a qemu one.
