I don't think he NEEDS ide-scsi for the IDE CDROM.

I've just set up a similar situation here except my CDRW is also IDE.
I've set up ide-scsi for that single device, and the cdrom remains 
standard ATAPI/IDE without ide-scsi emulation. All seems to work fine.
So, I'd think he could completely ignore ide-scsi, leave his cdrom
as ide, and just use scsi for the scsi cdrw.
