especially useful to set pam_console ownerships for e.g. /dev/cdrom, which is a symlink to the $DEVNAME.

Why not just ask udevinfo for the symlinks pointing to the device node?
That was the original idea, why we didn't put this in the dev.d/

[kay@pim ~]$ udevinfo -q symlink -n /dev/hdc
cdrom
Thanks,
Kay
