It works a little different, in udev.conf only one line changes, which
currently
points to a single udev.rules file. That would change to the dir rules.d
That dir would contain the various *.rules which contain the actual rules.
so our current udev.rules would be in rules.d/default.rules or something and
spells would have a much easier time adding/changing rules.

This would then be used by spells like cdrtools to allow users to burn.
Off course adding rules to udev.d should be asked to the user 1st ;)
