AFAIU he doesn't listen to people not running RHEL/Fedora (or any of the big binary distros). For a binary distro, that most likely already are using an initrd thingie, this works fine. In my mind it also makes it more difficult to support your own kernel (patches etc.) under these binary distros making you more dependent on the distro supplier. If you want control of what goes into your machine then this works less well... Now if you were a _big_ customer of RHEL that wanted to keep udev working like it currently does I think you might have some more leverage (i.e. if the developer refuses to keep things working, then someone at Red Hat would probably step in at the benefit of their customer and do the right thing(tm)).
