Wouldn't it be better to use subdirectories as much as possible?
I know it will be more difficult to implement, but will make things look
nicer, readdir faster, etc.
What about
/dev/sd/hHcCiIlL
/dev/sd/hHcCiIlLpP
/dev/pts/N
/dev/scd/hHcCiIlL /* current cdrom code doesn't use partitions */
...


Cheers,
