So what? You did not ask (yet)...

gnome-volume-manager does this. FWIW, this is not a MIME type...

There isn't necessarily a file. Audio CDs for example do not use a file
system in the way your hard drive does.
You aren't supposed to pick a file anyway. Audio CDs and DVDs are
detected by dbus and gnome-volume-manager handles the application to
open the medium automatically.

Nautilus / "computer:///" location / right click on the drive / Eject
Does "Eject" work? If it does not, please file a bug in
bugzilla.gnome.org.
