We just want to split package owned rules from user/on-demand created rules. Most of the udev rules files are static databases and must not be changed, therefore do not belong in /etc. Everything will continue to work as today, if system want to use /etc only, but we suggest to move things which are not supposed to be changed by users/admins to the private rules directory.
