 Jason, I just did it again:

 - Put cd in tray;
 - in one window, "mount /dev/hdc"

 - while tray is loading, as the same user mounting the device, find
the mount process in other window (ps ax | grep mount) and kill it (kill -9
26669)

 - Mounting window shows "Killed".
 - df doesn't show filesystem
 - ls /cdrom shows filesystem's contents
 - Umount /dev/hdc shows:
   umount: /dev/hdc is not mounted (according to mtab)
 - umount /dev/hdc as root says "not mounted", but umount
/media/cdrom0 (which doesn't work as a regular user in this situation) works
as root.

 I just repoed this twice in a row. The second time, I had to "kill
-9" the mount process twice, but it still worked.
