We used usermounts with devfs in our last TrustedBSD demo to our sponsor. In the demo, we manually manage the protections on the CD device -- since it doesn't disappear when the CD is inserted and removed, just when the device goes away, it works fairly well. We can also set protections at login for users as part of fbtab. I know that Warner's devd is more targetted at support newbus and device driver binding, but there was also (at one point) discussion of a devfsd that responded to device events.
