Boyd, you may not have noticed but this user posted a lot of random
one sentence things to the mailing list. I doubt this is a serious
question and is probably best left ignored.

I don't find that to be true at all.  For non-removable media except / you can 
simply use UUIDs everything should be fine.  For / you can generally use a 
UUID, too.  Removable media can be handled in a variety of ways.  I prefer 
using udev to fill in any gaps; writing udev rules doesn't really require 
familiarity with hardware (udev will tell you everything useful) and there are 
some descent guides available.
