The link you posted has nothing to do with this; that's only a systemd-specific change in response to a change in udisks2. In other words, Lennart has nothing to do with this change, the responsible is David Zeuthen, udisks2 maintainer: https://plus.google.com/u/0/110773474140772402317/posts/NqPUifsFUYH And it's actually a pretty reasonable change (IMHO): now in multiseat configurations each user can plug a USB drive and only him/she will see it (unless it has the corresponding permissions). And anyway, if you are using a desktop system you don't care where the drive mounts, it just appears in your filemanager. If you are not using a desktop, then you should not have udisks2 installed, probably.
