10.5: Eject stubborn disk images via AppleScript

This hint has been marked 10.5 only (presumably because it's a workaround for a bug in the Leopard Finder), but it will work in 10.4, and can be useful for quickly ejecting lots of disks, and finding out what process is blocking a disk being unmounted.
