I've to admint that I didn't follow the current way of mounting removal
devices in desktop enviroments but I'm still wondering what's the advantage

DevRef also recommends that it should be a noun phrase - in other
words something that could complete the sentence The package udevil
provides a/an/the/some ...

Upstream describes it as a hassle-free replacement for udisks, which
would fit, though it's unclear to me what hassle there is in using
udisks.  Or for instance you could copy the synopsis for udisks and
make it something like:
 udevil - alternative storage media interface
