Hmmm. You made the dashed rules executed in the loop. This breaks some
things. E.g.:
-adev root:root 666
adev  root:root 620

would result in /dev/adev having ... 666 mode! A bug.

The second change I'd like to introduce is to supply '-' for unneeded
values. E.g.
/sound root:audio 660 =snd/
mixer - - @script-to-set-volume

would free us from specifying uid:gid and/or mode, which have been
already specified in /sound rule.
This would make mdev.conf much more maintainable.

Please, comment. I meanwhile will make a patch.

Best regards,
