I think udev rules should be in the package driving the hardware, not 
somewhere else in a robot-control package. For example, 
openni-primesense (in review) carries such a file for the PrimeSense and 
Kinect, and I don't see that this should belong anywhere else. I don't 
like that centralization.

I'd think different if I'm just misunderstanding your proposal and you 
are in fact proposing some kind of framework. So your package would 
setup a group to which robot devices can be assigned, which are then 
magically accessible by the console user, and for which hardware 
packages only contain udev rules of the form "device identifier -> 
assign to robot group". But then, why not add this framework to the udev 
package in the first place?
