The DeviceKit daemon will go away. The two current users,
DeviceKit-disks, and DeviceKit-power will be converted to use libudev
directly.

There will be no such thing as a generic D-Bus-connected
event-multiplexer which will wake up for every event the kernel sends,
like HAL needs to do. It will all be at the udev/kernel level, and
events filtered by subsystem, which happens inside the kernel.

Did you check DeviceKit-disks and DeviceKit-power for the naming
issues you mention here?

Thanks,
