I support your proposal as presented. I think all or most rules should
be set in LFS.

Besides your reasons, I'll add these to the debate:

- there is a precedent for dealing with devices in LFS: the old MAKEDEV
  script

- At some point ease of use might enter the picture. Having all rules
  set in one place at one time eases system setup considerably.
