Suggestion for udev rules

I have a few external storage devices, 2 hd's and a camera, all usb_storage. 
And I find it very annoying to have them pop up on different names every 
time, depending on how I plug them in or coming back from a suspend you never 
know which one is going to get sda,sdb,sdc etc...

So I added a line to udev.rules to create symlinks based on vendor/model, no 
matter what order I plug them in /dev/ST3120022A5 will always be partition #5 
on that drive. Now sure there's a remote possibility that someone will have 
exactly the same model/vendor but it's way less likely to happen than just 
letting them get sda/b/c,etc... based on order of polling/plugin.

Isn't there some way this could be handled better in (k)ubuntu by default?
