The thing about lazy umounts, as the man page says :-
Lazy unmount. Detach the filesystem from the filesystem hierarchy now,
and cleanup all references to the filesystem as soon as
it is not busy anymore.
so.. What happens if I want to re-insert another cdrom into the tray? Will
it fire away without a hitch or will there be complains??

I noticed this a lot too. Try a lazy unmount `umount -l /mnt/<blah>`
that usually fixes it up straight away.
