Yea, I found that, but it has already changed three times now
(first you used hal, then you used DKD, now you use UDISK).
I figured a lower level eradication might stick through
more changes :-).
Having some user configurable way to utterly hide devices
does seem useful. I recall having a "helpful" operating
system "upgrade" all the partitions on a disk once, thus
rendering it utterly useless in the multi-boot environment
that could boot older kernels.
