This still applies to the Hardy Heron (using the beta ATM), and the solution to 
the problem is really simple,  but since ubuntu and kubuntu shares base 
packages, it may not be the best idea to have kubuntu do it's own thing with 
/etc/fstab.
Anyway, you can do what ubuntu does with UUID= using /dev/disk/by-uuid, and all 
of a sudden kde can create a valid "shortcut to hard disk device" on the 
desktop. same same, but different ;)

A note to anyone reading this. If you want to convert your /etc/fstab, then run 
this command(s);
sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.bak; sed 's|UUID=|\/dev\/disk\/by-uuid\/|' 
/etc/fstab.bak | sudo tee /etc/fstab
