Is hotplug still an issue or is it started by bootmisc? If i plug in my
USB stick (yes, I do have USB UHCI, EHCI, OHCI mass storage compiled
into the kernel) I can't mount it.

The hotplug init script doesn't do anything anymore, it's functions
have been taken over by udev.  There have been issues on and off of
conflicts between udev and the hotplug package, but nothing current
that I am aware of.

You can't mount it....why?  Is there no device being created?
udevmonitor may help to figure out why...

I remember some discussion about hotplug/coldplug and if coldplug makes
sense at all.

Coldplug is dead and gone, usurped by udev.

How do I ensure that devices plugged in while the system is up and
running arise (Emerging hotplug and add it to the default runlevel,
right?)?

No, just use current versions of the kernel and udev.
