By "this" you refer to the automatic mounting? No problem, and a good 
suggestion too.

Another problem I solved in various projects is the automatic loading of 
kernel drivers. It makes mdev automatically load modules and firmware, e.g. 
when plugging in a USB device, and adds a script to scan for hotpluggable 
devices at boot. It's only a few lines, but these make mdeve provide most of 
udev's functionality.
