Has something happened with standard udev that you are looking to switch? I've
not heard anything lately, but that does not make immediate sense to me.
I'm not the one you're asking, but I'll provide one reason to switch:
udev is a part of the systemd project, and in the near future it will probably
stop being packaged outside of systemd for it is a lot of work to do so.
Switching now is a good idea as opposed to switching later down the line when
it's suddenly packaged with systemd and you have to install all of it to get
udev.
I think that has already happened for quite some time. The latest udev
package outside systemd source in Debian is 175-7.2 according to
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/udev. In Debian jessie it is provided by
systemd package as shown on https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/systemd. I am
still on Debian wheezy with *systemd* pinned to Pin-Priority: -1. When I
tried to switched to jessie repository and do dist-upgrade, udev package
is not being pulled.
According to Jaret on
https://lists.dyne.org/lurker/message/20150506.032423.0a2c83ef.en.html,
udev source has been merged into systemd source since version 183.
