I believe the /dev/dvd* symlinks were correctly created in xubuntu 13.04
(raring), but they disappeared when I upgraded to 13.10 (saucy).

My /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules file contains rules that
look like they did the job some time in the past, but they refer to a
scsi target that no longer matches my DVD drive, and I notice that there
is no longer any symlink for my drive under /dev/disk/by-path.

I ended up writing custom rules to create the /dev/dvd* symlinks, but I
doubt that most users will be up to that task.

In raring, the rules file was apparently created by these files from the udev 
package:
/lib/udev/rules.d/75-cd-aliases-generator.rules
/lib/udev/write_cd_rules

In saucy, there are no such files.  Looks the udev package was moved to
the systemd source package in saucy.  I suppose the missing files must
have been forgotten during the move?
