As explained earlier in this bug, this is an incompatible change which could
cause working systems to fail to boot. As such, it is not appropriate for
backporting to a stable release.
There is new infrastructure in Edgy which makes it robust against this type
of change, allowing the root filesystem to be found regardless of the device
name, so this problem will be solved for the future.
