For that, someone needs to investigate, what changed in udev. 2/ Follow upstream and simply drop that "feature". I'm not convinced it is actually that useful nowadays. Modern desktop environments use frameworks like udisks which don't care for those names/symlinks anyway. I'm leaning towards 2/. Marco, what's your opinion on this?
