While it may be less than clear that a disk MUST be unmounted to write
to it (except with UDF on RW disks), that is a necessity for both
burning a CDR and formatting a CDRW.  K3b does not do that for you and I
have at times overlooked the fact that disks automount when trying to
copy disks and when formatting the CDRW (even though I have years of
experience and am thus not a newbie)

I agree that it may be useful to have that option in k3b and you can
easily submit a feature request to the authors.

Jeff,

I have clear that a disk MUST be unmounted, but I have also clear that
a standard user SHOULD not bother with line commands as there is no
option to unmount  CDRW from menus.
And the problem is also with nautilus burner, so it is not a problem
with k3b but how the system mounts/umounts CDRW.
But I understand that I am the only one to experience this problem
(that I had not before latest updates, I am sure as I blanked/burnt my
FC5 on CDRW!!!!)...

My other two cents

Tnx
