Putting something like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <!-- -*- SGML -*- -->

<deviceinfo version="0.2">
   <device>
         <match key="storage.drive_type" string="floppy">
	<merge key="storage.policy.mount_filesystem" type="string">vfat</merge>
	<merge key="storage.policy.desired_mount_point" 
type="string">floppy</merge>
	<match 
key="/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer:linux.is_selinux_enabled" 
bool="true">
	  <merge 
key="storage.policy.mount_option.fscontext=system_u:object_r:removable_t" 
type="bool">true</merge>
	</match>
   </device>
</deviceinfo>

In a file in the /usr/share/hal/fdi/95userpolicy/ directory
should override the default floppy options (the difference
is the first merge element), but I haven't tried it myself.
