    By the manual, the correct solution in configuring Grub as to pass the

Those fix similar problems but not exactly the same ones.  The udev
persistent rules get you when you move an image from one machine to
another or swap out failed hardware and suddenly you have no network
because eth0 suddenly became eth1.  And as I noted, not only network
device names but CD drives as well are impacted.  The fixes you suggest
solve the equally annoying problem of eth0 or wlan0 unexpectedly turning
into a string of gibberish after an upgrade.

They are turning everything into a UUID or similar string of untypable
gibberish.  It is almost like they don't want you to use the command
line directly anymore.  Nah, that couldn't be it, right?

My rc.local contains this line:

rm /etc/udevd/rules/*persist*
      With this, Udev starts from scratch at every boot :-)

      Looks like a very nice approach, but it's too hidden: if you
inherit a machine which is doing that, it can take you pretty long
before you find out who the hell is deleting the udev rules. Maybe
rewrite the files with only a comment like

# This file has been wiped out by /etc/rc.local because I don't want
udev to rename my devices.

Comments are overrated. Remember the holy church of cleancode? Levels out the 
differences between managment and coders: With cleancode not only managers dont 
understand code, coders don't  ether!

Well, this isn't code, its only management, but there might be a holy church of cleanmanagement as well. I would say it's a matter of taste to let comments or not when you hack your system :-)
