My question is: is there a better way? UDisks is ostensibly portable to non- Linux systems. As is media-player-info. But UDev isn't. So applications have to take two bits of platform-agnostic data and link them together with platform-specific glue. This doesn't seem very nice.
One way, though kind of backwards, would be to enumerate the devices using UDisks, and then use the DeviceFile property of each Udisks.Device to go back to libudev and look for additional properties. It would be really nice if UDisks (and UPower, etc.) added a guaranteed udev property with a unique identifier so that someone walking the udev tree would (a) know that "this device is managed by X" and (b) be able to ask X for the U*.Device corresponding to that udev device.
