The remove event happens just fine.  It's just that the current scripts
don't do anything with it :)

But there is an event.  You can catch it on your own if you want.  Just
put your script in /etc/hotplug.d/usb/

Or if you want to catch the fact when udev removes a /dev node (which
odds are is what you really want to catch), put your script, or a link
to it in /etc/dev.d/block/ with the extension .dev and you will get both
add and remove events that corrisponded to a udev create or remove
device node.

Hope this helps,
