Yes.  But that should suite you well.  The media would be unmounted and safe to
remove.  But if you really want to eject it (get CD tray open, get your iPod
usable), then you will have all the clues (tray closed, iPod "locked") to press
the button for the second time :-)
And about the second click - it's not as bad if you consider that with CD tray
open you have to do a bunch of other actions to pick a disc from the tray, shove
it into some case, etc.

But well, we are designing something that may never come to exist :)
