How is it 'inherently target specific' ?  It varies from device to
device, but even within a target  it differs, so we pick what is most
likely to be used (/dev/sdXX).  It works for most people, and it's
easy enough to change.

Extroot or external storage isn't something that belongs as an
enabled by default option anyway.  This doesn't deal with mounting
the rootfs for something that needs it to boot (for that you need USB
built into the kernel).
