I'd like the system (mass-storage or someone else) does NOT move the
USB key from /dev/sda to /dev/sdb. Having this feature will resolve
several issues like, for example, using an USB key as rootfs or
forcing an umount before suspending the system.

I don't understand where is the problem in doing this.

Thanks for your help,

Rodolfo
