I was talking behaviour and backward-incompatible changes, not
implying any udev/HAL interaction as far as this change is concerned.

This won't help upstream; what I want to avoid is having to keep code
to generate 2 versions of the HAL crap, because that's only going to
confuse users to hell.

The users who install SANE from source by themselves are already lost
with udev most of the time, I don't want to have two options for HAL
rules upstream.

So I'm looking for a way to avoid having to do that. If it ends up
being impossible, then so be it, that'll be another item on my
"why HAL sucks" list.
