Behaviour notes

The document describes the mount that was released, so it is the same shape mount printed when it went up.

umount is tried first and diskutil unmount force second, which is what gets a mount down when a shell is still sitting in it. The mount point is then removed if it is empty and inside ~/Edith, so the folders do not pile up; a mount point you chose with --at is left where it is.

A machine that is not mounted exits 4 rather than pretending to have done something:

$ ed machines unmount tuf
error: Asus TUF 7 is not mounted.
