A (silly?) thought occurs -- perhaps udevd should be creating either new
device nodes or (this is where it gets devious): bind-mounting the device
nodes to their "friendly" names rather than simply symlinking. Everyone
loves bind mounts and symlinks are so Ye Olde Schoole.

Also, what do we do for FUSE mounts?

Simply allow/disallow FUSE? Or grant permissions to specific FUSE
transports? (Say, allow sshfs for one profile, allow ipod-name-demangling
for another profile.)

Thanks
