I understand everything you're saying. However, Andy says this all
works without D-Bus/HAL installed.

I believe I've the concept down. I think it is inotify that is
responding to the Udev event and notifying userspace applications.
So indeed if this is how it's done, you wouldn't need DBUS/HAL to
simply mount plug-in media.
