Its not UDisks which is inconsistent, but the representation in Solid. It has a lot of issues: - properties are not per interface in Solid, but per device. This is plain wrong (e.g. the partition and the filesystem '/dev/sda5' may have different size, but Solid merges their "Size" property). - Solid does not listen properly to the propertiesChanged event, but insists on polling in a number of places. - DBus messages are handled in different places (e.g. the interfaces signals, handled in both DeviceManager and the Device), leading to inconsistent state.
