thats a bit drastic, isnt it ? i know a lot setups where people use the
local disk in old PCs as data storage.
look at this snippet from scripts/add_fstab_entry:

# mount in the client session
if [ -S /var/run/ldm_socket ]; then
    /usr/bin/ssh -S /var/run/ldm_socket server \
                 "/usr/sbin/ltspfsmounter ${MOUNTPOINT} add"
else
    echo "${MOUNTPOINT} ${1} ${2}" >> /var/run/.delayed-mount
    if [ ! -z "${FIXEDDEVICE}" ]; then
        echo "${MOUNTPOINT} ${1} ${2}" >> /var/run/.static-device
    else
        echo "${MOUNTPOINT} ${1} ${2}" >> /var/run/.delayed-mount
    fi
fi

just drop the "else" part or wrap it into a boolean variable like
STATIC_DEVICES. if that part is missing, only devices plugged in during
the session are recognized. CDs are handled by cdpinger, if you dont
change the udev rules it will not break ;)

ciao
