This rule is broken anyway, because a system may have e.g. a cd reader
and a burner.
On my system I use a standalone rule to associate a generic symlink to
the right hardware device:
BUS="ide", ID="1.0", SYMLINK="cdrom"
I think that the distribution installer should create such rules for
available devices.
