You mean instead of a script doing "cd /media/cdrom", now that script
has to interface to hal?  Where is the bash interface to hal?

What is the gain in this change?  Maybe if someone could just explain
why this change was made, people would understand.  There have been a
bunch of people pointing out negatives, but nobody has explained a
positive (there's just shouting that the people pointing out negatives
are wrong).
