Probably more of a casper or syslinux bug than ubiquity itself because
even if you just boot the live DVD and select Restart the disc is never
ejected, no prompt is given, and the DVD just reboots unless you're
either quick enough to enter BIOS (or UEFI setup) or press a key when
the human + keyboard image appears at the bottom of the screen so you
can select Boot from first hard drive from the advanced boot menu.

Title:
  amd64 installer fails to provide means to eject disc

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Test Case: Install (manual partitioning) in Xubuntu Desktop amd64 for
  Vivid Daily

  Excerpt from the test case:

  13. Wait for the installer to finish
      An 'Installation Complete' dialog appears
  14. Click the Restart now button
      GUI is shut down, a prompt to remove media and press Enter appears
  15. Remove the disc and press enter
      The machine is rebooted

  Failed at step 14 as no prompt to eject disc was provided.  System
  rebooted instead and tried to restart installation process.  I had to
  hold down the power button to shut the laptop down, manually eject the
  disc, and then restart the machine to bring it up normally.
