I have misunderstood either the poster's question or the paragraph in
"man udev" discussing the RUN key:

----excerpt----
RUN

  Add a program to the list of programs to be executed for a specific
device. This can only be used for very short running tasks.  Running an
event process for a long period of time may block all further events for
this or a dependent device. Long running tasks need to be immediately
detached from the event process itself.

----excerpt----

For example, this works:

SUBSYSTEM="*", RUN+="/root/udev-catch-remove"
ENV{DEVNAME}="/dev/foobar", RUN+="/path/to/prog"

Is this only working because the match keys are different?

Regards,
Richard
