Harald, I only proposed this as a quick workaround for affected users,
for a couple of reasons.

#1 - It locks usb-storage, so you can't change it to ub. If we do that,
might as well disable ub altogether.

#2 - It is conceptually wrong, because it encodes the knowledge of
the alias resolution (e.g. now the 50.udev magically "knows" that
ic08 == usb-storage). This is something modules.alias has to specify,
and not any other files.

So, please don't add it to udev.
