I see it is kpartx that is defaulting to the 'p' as the delimiter (in the set_delimiter function) when the uuid ends with a digit and no delimiter when the uuid ends with a character. Wouldn't it be better to always use the same delimiter by default? As it stands now one will not be able to determine that a node is a partition versus a full device by just looking at the name.
