All my machines have MATE desktop. They are various releases of Jessie 
and Stretch.

If the USB device is connected at boot, the individual partitions can be 
unmounted.

However, if the device is connected after boot individual partitions can 
not be unmounted with the GUI.

This is *UNACCEPTABLE*!
What controls this action?
An acceptable alternative that when connected the device is not 
automatically mounted but just appears in the Places menu.

TIA
