Yes & no. Thing is - originally we ignored tray status in the guest. So in case guest has locked the tray and thus ignored our eject request, we have changed the media anyway, resulting in possible I/O errors within guest. With my patch, we send eject request to the qemu, and actively poll for the tray to open. We check for up to 10 times every 200ms. So guest has 2 seconds to open the tray. If the guest doesn't eject media and open the tray we don't proceed with forcibly changing the media.
