Yes, it would be safe. It's just code duplication.
Why does it use group lego? Is there a daemon running?
Or should the console user have access to it?

FWIW, I'd really like to see the console user have access to this by
default.  Then, uploading a file to the NXT brick would be plug and
play.

Yeah. Trouble is - I know nothing about ConsoleKit policy. What's the
trick to change this udev rule into something that works with CK?

Multiple identical udev rules -- safe?

Consider this file from nxt_python package:

  cat  /etc/udev/rules.d/70-lego.rules
  BUS==usb, SYSFS{idVendor}==0694, GROUP=lego, MODE=0660

package with different filename? To state the obvious -- it'd use the
same group name and mode.

Fallback plan is to prep a package just for this udev rule and depend
on it, but it seems unnecesary overhead.
