There is.  Make /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules a symlink
to /dev/null and it will leave you alone.  Do another for
70-persistent-cd.rules if you have a laptop and have external burners at
home and work.  On the other hand, udev rules can also be mighty handy
for making sure USB-Serial adapters, android devices, USB sticks, etc.
show up at consistent locations when that is what you want.
