Yes, that would make sense for udev or anything else that enumerates through devices and partitions. But I think vol_id is just a simple one-block-device sniffer: it looks at a given block device like /dev/sda1 without looking at what would be the parent device. Those utilities using vol_id need to do better checking. OTOH the man page says that vol_id "detects various raid setups to prevent the recognition of raid members as a volume with a filesystem." which it seems that it fails to do. Maybe we should open a separate bug for vol_id (udev) and leave this one for the Desktop CD issue.
