(Not a maintainer either :) ) I agree this should belong to solid, so we can have platform dependent solution for more easily. Similar feature is also implemented in gvfs.

Actually I'm a little bit surprise that gvfs also uses lsof command to do the same thing instead of parsing procfs. fuser may be an better alternative POSIX choice. (Make sure use the posix compat option if you want to use fuser http://www.unix.com/man-page/posix/1posix/fuser/ , if you run it manually stderr will make the output confusing, run fuser -c / 2>/dev/null to get the pid only output.)
