I've thought about the process of fixing hardcoded provider names there,

is already posted to current@), I think it will be much easier for
everybody, and especially users, if I hack all mentioned above GEOM
classes to ignore adX/adaY difference in provider names. And it should
perfectly fit into remaining time window.
Could you be more specific what the hack would do exactly?
I would write some comparison function, which would search both names
for adX/adaY prefixes, if they found on both arguments, trimmed them and
compared remaining parts.
I think for usual purpose of name hardcoding device name part is less
important. Comparing partition names part should be enough. The tricky
part there is to properly identify device part, so I was thinking about
specific hack for adX/adaY.
