I think there is confusion because Lenny's eject (2.1.5+deb1-4) doesn't
have -i option at all. It's in Sid's eject (2.1.5+deb1+cvs20081104-6):

    -i on|1|off|0
        This option controls locking  of the hardware eject button. When
        enabled,  the drive  will  not  be ejected  when  the button  is
        pressed. This is useful when you  are carrying a laptop in a bag
        or  case  and   don't  want  it  to  eject   if  the  button  is
        inadvertently pressed.
