I need to try to make the issue for us a bit more clear.

Basically gentoo does not have fixed releases, and we support in-place
upgrades of packages. So if udev changes in a way that does not retain
backward compatibility for a while, it will cause breakage for us.

This is why we are asking that you continue supporting rules in
/lib/udev for a while.

Thanks for your consideration,

William
