The KEY="" format supports '=', '=', '!=,' , '+=' now. This makes it easy to skip certain attribute matches without composing rules with weird character class negations like: KERNEL="[!s][!c][!d]*" this can now be replaced with: KERNEL!="scd*" The current simple '=' is still supported, and should work as it does today, but existing rules should be converted if possible, to be better readable.
