Could you put under options "Use Safely Remove Hardware Option" (true/false)
so that we could choose not to have that window pop up when we exit

Also Heres the lua file for something that activates EjectUSB instead when the eject is pressed
just put it as "main.lua" in "Appetizer\Data\Plugins\EjectUSB\" and extract EjectUSB (google it)
--------------------------------------
function appetizer_close(event)
system:runCommand(plugin:getDirectory() .. '/EjectUSB.exe')
end

appetizer:addEventListener("close", "appetizer_close")

----------------------------------

That way everything is automatic.

BTW it's modifiable to work with
- RemoveDrive.exe http://www.uwe-sieber.de/drivetools_e.html#RemoveDrive
- USB_Disk_Eject.exe http://quick.mixnmojo.com/software#usbdiskeject
- DevEject.exe http://www.withopf.com/tools/deveject/
- USBDeview.exe http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html
- AutoStart.exe / AutoEject.exe http://xpt.nl/products-autostart

Hmmm... I'm not sure about it, as it seems that such an option wouldn't be useful to the majority of users. Could you explain what you have in mind? Maybe there's a better way to do it?

The way you've done with a plugin seems the way to go actually. You could even improve your script further:

* By killing the blocking applications using system:killLockingProcesses(appetizer:getDrive())

* And maybe by adding a custom "Close" button to the option panel using OptionButton:new().

function closeAndEject()
    system:killLockingProcesses(appetizer:getDrive())
    system:runCommand(plugin:getDirectory() .. '/EjectUSB.exe')
end
 
function appetizer_close(event)
    closeAndEject()
end
 
function button_click()
    appetizer:close()
    closeAndEject()
end
 
button = OptionButton:new()
button:setToolTip("Close and eject")
button:addEventListener("click", "button_click")
optionPanel:addButton(button)
 
appetizer:addEventListener("close", "appetizer_close")
