That would be nice but so far my experiments do not confirm that.
I mean that entries you mention indeed were not touched. The
problem is that new entries, referencing the same devices but
with a higher numbered mount points showed up. Not so great.
As I understand that this is still in flux I am still waiting
how this really end up before starting specific complaints.

me and was not reaching beyond removable media.

Thanks. That is what I am waiting for. Also a "no surprises"
default behaviour would be desirable and at least some documetation.

If they will get noticed by corresponding developers and if they
will be deemed "constructive". :-) OTOH Mike Harris, for example,
has an "If it is not in bugzilla then it Does Not Exist" matra of a
very long standing.
