Bug#427568: gnome: Mounting CD with two users running Gnome

Package: gnome
Version: 1:2.14.3.6
Severity: normal

Actions done: 

Login as user x in Gnome. 
Lock session of x.
Login as user y in Gnome. 
Insert CD
Let automounter do its thing. 
Try to unmount CD as user y. 

The last step just failed on me(this user has plenty of rights to mount/unmount volumes), because it claims user x has mounted it. This is nonsensible behaviour. The reason in the code is probably that it doesn't check whether the user that's selected in some way hasn't got his session locked. 

The expected behaviour is that the CD is unmounted.
