My Linux box has an "eject" command.  As I recall, so does SunOS.

Some OSs can do this already.  I seem to recall that my Linux box used
to do this before I upgraded the OS; I haven't tried to reconfigure it
that way since then.

I don't like autorun.

These things seem to be properties of some layer lower than the
desktop environment.
