OK. I'm confused. Why is this bug marked as Invalid & Fix Released?

It is clear that the "fix" from:
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udisks/+bug/539515?comments=all>
is a regression & that the only way that users with floppys can get them to work is to back down to udisks 1.0.1-1build1.

Can one of the devs listed in the assigned: Andy Whitcroft and Martin Pitt please explain the status?
I find it odd that Ubuntu would forgo using a valid machine peripheral simply to appease those experiencing longer boot delays (10 to 30 seconds - 539515). A good portion of the world still use floppies.

*Please* resolve this issue.
