No, either Tracker doesn't detect your drive as removable, either it's
a bug :)

No, you'd use gudev for that

You can watch the SubjectsAdded signal, but that will notify you of
every triple added to the store, not every file added.

No, but the information is entered in tracker store immediatly after
being gathered by the FS miner, so it's shouldn't change anything.
