order. I will gladly accept patches for any of these items, or any other stuff
people offer up.

- more documentation (can never have too much.)
-- document the config file format (it will change over time...)
-- add proper man page
-- add klibc to the build process (or make it easier to do) to get
- smaller binary
-- import latest libsysfs and convert udev to use it.
-- On remove, look up the device in the database (now that we have one) and
- delete what was created, not what the kernel is calling the device.
-- add symlink generation and removal support
- better partition support (it's a hack right now, maybe new libsysfs changes
can help out a lot here.)
- allow database to be queried by other programs
- better permission handling
- create kernel name to devfs name config file so that all of the devfs users
will have an upgrade path.
-- make program work like design says it should (three parts, not 1)
-- add hooks to call D-BUS when new node is created or removed
+- do early boot logic (putting udev into initramfs, handle pivot-root,
+ etc.)
- lots of other stuff...
+- actually use the BUS= value to determine where the LABEL rule should look
+ (right now it's ignored, and we only look in the current sysfs directory.)
+ This is needed, for example, to look at the usb device's serial number of a
+ usb-storage device, instead of the scsi device's sysfs directory for the
+ serial number.
