Subject: possible to mask nodes from being created ?

i looked through the files in /etc/udev/ but wasnt able to figure out a way to 
keep udev from creating nodes i'll never use ...

for example, /dev/vc/ is populated with 64 nodes for the console and /dev/rd/ 
is populated with 16 nodes for ramdisks ... personally i know i'm never going 
to use 64 nodes for my console nor am i going to use 16 nodes for 
ramdisks ...

is there anyway for me to say 'only create tty[0-5]' or 'only create 
ram[0-3]' ?  note that even throwing them in subdirs and just not creating a 
symlink isnt good enough in my book ;)
