Shouldn't users / admins be modifying corresponding fdi files in
/etc/hal/fdi/policy/ rather than editing the packaged versions in
%{_datadir}?  And if they do edit files in %{_datadir}, isn't it their
problem if updates overwrite their changes? :)

Personally, I've had customizations for my synaptics touchpad in
/etc/hal/fdi/policy/11-synaptics.fdi through numerous updates.
