I wonder: do you use the /dev/disc/* links, or the /dev/ide/... and /dev/scsi/... constructs? I'm not sure how udev will be able to support both layouts.
Also: do you prefer a devs compatible layout, or maybe use the change for a cleanup? a short list of obscurities: /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 but /dev/printers/0 and /dev/tts/0 and /dev/floppy but /dev/discs etc. also all floppy devices are in /dev/floopy, where each disc has is /dev/discs/discN directory/symlink. I think it's a good opportunity for a cleanup, but that wouldn't be compatible...
