That might work, I don't know... I only have one cdrom device, it's
difficult for me to test that.

Mmmm... If you take a look at the output of cdrom_id, you will
understand that a dvdrw is considered as a cdrom, a cdrw, a dvd, and a
dvdrw, this is cumulative. So a dvdrw device will match the four rules,
thus it will have four symlinks against it, and it will be applied the
perms of these four rules. So here it will be those from cdrw (660 and
burning group) as they override those from cdr.
