The thing is, I think, that "Eject" is a generic option for all
removable media. It does an unmount then (I guess1) tries the eject
command against the device. There is nothing in it specific to a type
of medium.

That's true - it /can/ be done. But for what you want, it would need
something specific to  CD-RW media that did not apply for
CD/CDR/DVD/DVDR/floppy media. Thus, I think, it would be considerably
harder to do.
