Would disabling the watch rule be a reasonable approach in this case? If 
the user want to scan a new device, it only needs to issue partprobe or 
kpartx, or am I missing something?

Well, this is not good news. Just for my education, it is possibile to 
run a modern linux distro without udev at all? I still remember when the 
new cool thing for device autodiscovery was devfs (with some distro - 
like gentoo - taking the alternative approach to simply tarrig & 
untarring much of the entire /dev/ files to prepopulate the major+minor 
number...)

Any info on the project?
Thanks.
