I very much agree with Fred.

So even for single partition device, it would also be more appropriate
to have the both options accessible in context menu.
      
Having two options might confuse the user; Most people are not
technical-savvy and only want to 'Safely remove' if they do this at
all.

Huh??

Most of the people who are not technical-savvy and want to remain that
way are using Window$ or Macinto$h machines. I think most Fedora users
are geeks or geek wannabe's :-) Don't dumb down Fedora by removing
useful tools from the default gui installation. For a new user, if a
tool isn't listed in a menu, it's devilish hard to learn of it's
existence.

I, for one, use the unmount command from the pop up menu every time I
plug in my usb drive used for backing up both my Fedora machine and my
Window$ machine - I unmount just the NTFS partition and keep the ext3
mounted.
