I'm not positive, but Disk Utility and Finder may both call
diskimages-helper to do the actual work
("/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/DiskImages.framework/Resources/diski
mages-helper").
One of these processes occurs for each imaging operation taking place
(create, mount, etc). If you knew how it worked (reading commands off
STDIN, perhaps?) then you could wrap it.
That is, assuming, that the problem happens somewhere within
diskimages-helper, and not before.
