You can use the device.hintsfile to tie down where scsibus0 goes so that your SCSI disks are probed first. You can dynamically load umass.ko when you're using it. You can also take advantage of geom_label.ko (if you create labels on your filesystems (tunefs -L foo /dev/da0s1a, etc), then /dev/ufs/foo will appear. If you used almost any geom class, actually, the name of the disk gets virtualized to some extent.
