Ah, ok, sorry for my previous email. Yes, this matches with what I remember.
And this also makes sense - it's as for hd* - only present devices are shown.

Sorry, but __how__? And to _which purpose_?
The only way you have is:
*) ssh/(telnet) to the host
*) uml_mconsole
*) config ubd0=path (path relative to the UML cwdir at startup). Yes, this is
hotplug. And it also works for network devices. It's as wonderful as it gets.
