Just a vague idea for the moment;
How aboot some mechanism that can do number lookups by name for disks?
( just like is done for host protocols ports or users and groups and possibly
more things.. )
for instance an /etc/disks with lines like:
1234567890abcdef backups bac0000000000001
Anyways, as I have no code for something like this at this moment I'll shut up
for now on this.
