I am aware of this solution but as explained in my mail this only works
on USB bus and device numbers and will break if I attach the scanner to
another USB port.

This is a first class example where udev *could* provide advantage over
static /dev obviously it does not :-(

Those, who are willing to give up essential liberty
for the sake of short-term security
deserve neither liberty nor security.
