The problem with doing it this way rather than keeping /dev/cd and /dev/dvd
and fixing the udev links, is what happens _next_ time a kernel change
changes the physical name of the device - kaffeine breaks again, but this
time it's harder for the rest of us to debug, because you no longer have a
stock configuration.
