Errr... I see I'm not in the majority here, but eyh, I can still give my opinion... ;) Two major principles in HMI ergonomics are :
- to let the user control the GUI,
- to provide users with feedback so that they remain conscious of the system state.

It seems to me that applying this principle here would not lead to redirecting the window to a new place (so that the user keeps control about what happens), but to display a message telling him the /media/usb_blahblah has been unmounted/ejected/whatever. This way, if he mounts a new media, the content will be displayed in the same window.
