Unable to eject optical drive

If I once open /media/dvdram using a Konqueror window, I am unable to eject
the DVD-drive so long as that Window is open -- this is somewhat
understandable. (Another OS allows eject and closes the window displaying its
content -- but I am not saying Linux should behave like that.)

But even after I have closed the tab which was used to read the DVDRAM, until
I have completely closed the window (which may contain lots of other tabs) I
am not allowed to eject the DVDRAM drive. This is very inconvenient if I find
I have inserted the wrong DVD to browse and I have to replace it with
another.

Do I report this bug (wishlist) at Novell or KDE?
