On kernel 2.4.20, media-change detection work even if the device is 
never close. I can't confirm this on 2.6.3 buit it should work to ... ?

With this patch, here is how mediamonitor work :
when mediastatus change :
MEDIASTAT_OPEN -> MEDIASTAT_NOTMOUNTED then mediamonitor mount it (if data)
MEDIASTAT_NOTMOUNTED -> MEDIASTAT_MOUNTED then mediamonitor execute 
mediahandler
the tray is always unlock
MEDIASTAT_MOUNTED -> MEDIASTAT_OPEN then mediamonitor unmount the device
the door is unlocked than you should open the door when you want even if 
you are still in videotree.
if you open the door by pressing eject button on cdrom drive, the door 
will open and the device will be unmount.

It's will i don't need to unmount device after the handle return.

Have you try to open the door ? it's work ?
unlock don't work or mediamonitor don't detect you open the door ?
what mediamonitor said ?
