All device pseudo-files, sr0 included, are named the way they are by udev. For user's convenience, udev should also create symlinks to /dev/sr0 named /dev/cdrom, /dev/cdrw and others. The creation of such symlinks is controlled by this file: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules If you want to fix devices' names - you need to change it there. The ability to burn CDs and DVDs does not depend in any way to the contents of /etc/fstab. Fstab is only used for mounting CDs with an existing filesystem.
