Probably still works fine, for people with multiple devices, but at
the cost of having to specify the individual model. My situation is
simpler (one CD/DVD drive on each machine, except my netbook where
it is external). I've just had a trial run, based on something I
found and sedding /etc/udev/rules.d/81-cdrom.rules to add
, SYMLINK+="cdrom dvd"
but in the end I was not wholly convinced it will work and it
is inconvenient to reboot at the moment. If it does work I'll go
with it.
If it doesn't, I'll try what I posted in August 2013.

Nanny Ogg usually went to bed early. After all, she was an old lady.
Sometimes she went to bed as early as 6 a.m.
