uuid works for (most) flash and hard drives, but not necessarily network mounts, optical drives or other... But I guess Unity needs some way to figure out that something is a device in order to place it at the correct position in the Launcher.
I agree that using mount path is slightly hacky though - but it will be reliable for almost all users. Eeek - except I just discover that CD-ROMs are mounted under /media/$disk_label :-/
