   Comparing SHR unstable (from about 3 weeks ago)
/etc/udev/rules.d/permissions.rules

# input devices
KERNEL=="event[0-9]*", ATTRS{name}=="*dvb*|*DVB*|* IR *" \
                                MODE="0664",    GROUP="video"
KERNEL=="js[0-9]*",             MODE="0664"
KERNEL=="lirc[0-9]*",                           GROUP="video"

with Debian /lib/udev/rules.d/91-permissions.rules

# input devices
KERNEL=="event[0-9]*", ATTRS{name}=="*dvb*|*DVB*|* IR *" \
                                MODE="0664",    GROUP="video"
KERNEL=="js[0-9]*",             MODE="0664"
KERNEL=="event[0-9]*", ENV{ID_CLASS}=="joystick", \
                                MODE="0664",    GROUP="audio"
KERNEL=="lirc[0-9]*",                           GROUP="video"

there's a difference in the input device section and indeed I have some
input devices with group audio and read permission for everybody:

# ls -l /dev/input/
total 0
crw-rw---- 1 root root  13, 64 May  5 11:39 event0
crw-rw---- 1 root root  13, 65 May  5 11:39 event1
crw-rw-r-- 1 root audio 13, 66 May  5 11:39 event2
crw-rw-r-- 1 root audio 13, 67 May  5 11:39 event3
crw-rw---- 1 root root  13, 68 May  5 11:39 event4
crw-rw---- 1 root root  13, 63 May  5 11:39 mice
