I have swap on the SD card. I just pulled the cover and my SD partitions got unmounted EXCEPT for the swap (which is not really mounted).
I guess, but I cannot confirm, that when pulling out the cover any mounted partition (perhaps even only VFAT, but I don't know) gets unmounted, but that's all.
Swap is by definition not a mounted partition, so nothing happens.
Obviously, if you do pull the CARD with swap on it you get an instant crash.

It believe it is entirely possible to create a 'swapon SD/swapoff SD' entry in power menu 'systemui.xml' just by adding a few lines just like phone/tablet mode button thing.

Just one additional comment: just a few minutes ago I happened to pull the back over of my N900 and it instantly rebooted.
I'm seriously getting tired of a lot of Maemo-crap that happens to be loaded in our loved N900s. Thanks to @Estel I have my third N900 which I'm basically r4aping by removing lots of preinstalled stuff and cleaninng up the boot process a bit. I will see if I can completely get rid of ke-recv and related GNOMEish-Windows-ish-user-is-too-dumb-to-do-this-by-himself stuff.
My aim is to make a minimal Maemo (I might even remove hildon desktop) which I can then "easily" move to the eMMC (and use U-boot to boot it) and then pack everything in a flashable image.
Anyway, next step is ke-recv.
