Is it? A lot of applications need libudev, but if I can get libudev-compat to generate the requisite information from sysfs and a static dev, I'll spring for that instead of having it depend on a device manager. Static dev should remain an option for as long as it is feasible, IMHO.

I agree that static dev must remain an option. 200%. I use it on embeded powerpc devices running Wheezy with kernel 2.6.29, because Wheezy's udev is not compatible with this "deprecated" kernel version.

But if you are looking for productivity on your laptop, you want an application to create a device file with a meaningful name when you plug in a usb key. Plus another to allow you to mount/umount it in a mouse-click -- or a shortkey if Tilt knows how :-)
