Well downside with udev is that it might not play nice with the other tools? I'm not very read up on it tbh.
I've been in talks with the udisk guys and we will be adding the udisk namespace, just waited abit for it to make an appearance in ubuntu so I had something to work against. Should be fairly straightforward though, basically copy the DeviceKit-Disks class, strip the oldapi support and alter the namespace.
Regarding localdisks, I know it wasn't possible under HAL since it forced root for that, not sure if devicekit-disks can do this userspace. I guess it should in theory be able to do it if udev grants the disk node as userspace though? I'd love to see us able to mount internal ones aswell, especially the esata ones. Starting a discussion on udisk mailing list would be good for that.
Cheers,
Tobias
