I do not know if that is correct to set the severity back. This Bug is
harming people.

I am even not convinced.

I did that but the problem still exists.

And it is even more certain that this is a software bug in udisk.
Independent of the udev rule setting, the bug doesn't appear if I never
use the udisks tool at all. But after the first call of udisks the
problem appears.

More over, I never had this problem with that device for ages now. It
just appears ones in the past and is very annoying and dangerous. As I
told, I do not give that much for graphical user environments. I myself
using fvwm and be mostly bound to multiple xterms. So, this freedesktop
stuff is not of many use for me.
