Sure, not today, it was just added only a few weeks ago. But we will
move stuff over over time, and recent packages which depend on a new
udev version, like all the upcoming DeviceKit stuff, can expect the
directory to be there. and can expect udevd to automatically recognize
rule changes with inotify.
All that will break, if you try to needlessly "optimize" things. Just
create the directory, even when it's empty today, it's an official udev
ABI.
