Well I'm not - and my proposed solution isn't very hard to implement.
Just immediately stop reading partitions - eventually whole drive when reading
of the first sector fails - what's hard about implement?

Also how do you want to discover the filesystem type if it fails to read the
first sector - what is the point in the read continuation - is the UDEV
advanced to guess filesystem type from the first 1MB of readed sectors??

BTW - I'm also the Debian developer - and I'd really like to see this
issue fixed and please try to be a little bit more constructive with
your next answer.

Bye
