Your point is well taken.  I will have to check, but is controlling the
volume name, i.e. 'cdrom', sufficient to guarantee a known mount?

No.
It does not happen that way, with CDs or DVDs, on FC3 or RHEL 4, and
RHEL 4 and before will be here for years to come. Heck, RHL 7.3 is still
around (and supported by Fedora Legacy).


My base personal machine is running FC4; but it was originally built, 3 sets of hardware ago, with RH 7.3. The combination dvd player/cdrecorder has always mounted as /media/cdrecorder. The base server machine is running FC3,

It must be RHL 7.3 Special Edition then. Here's my fairly fresh RHL 7.3 system:
[summer@Pelican summer]$ rpm -qf /etc/redhat-release
redhat-release-7.3-1
[summer@Pelican summer]$ ls -d /m*
drwxr-xr-x    4 root         4096 Jan  3 08:39 /mnt
[summer@Pelican summer]$

No /media directory you note. Nor was there on 6.2, 5.{0,1,2} nor RHL 4.{0,1,2} noe RHL 3.0.3. I used them all; probably 6.0 and 6.1 too, though I can't recall for sure.
