The current idea is that udev only labels the device on bootup once,
or when a new device is discovered, and never changes it again (unless
someone will synthesize 'add' events, which should not happen).

The behavior described in the initial bug is just a plain udev bug.
With the fix Harald put in, it should behave as described above. That
can all be changed though, if needed, and if something else makes
sense.
