Can udev match on metadata from the partition table map itself?

Hi,

I have system using the Apple Partition Map partition table, instead of the DOS-style Master Boot Record partition table format. The Apple Partition Map table has some metadata for each partition, regardless of the partition type. One of those pieces of metadata is the "partition name".

I have an ext2 filesystem  on one of the partitions. Ext2 itself has the concept of filesystem names.

I want to have a rule that matches against the name in the Apple Partition Map, rather than one that matches against the ext2 filesystem name.

Is there any easy way to do this? I can think of some ugly hack, by running a PROGRAM to set some variables with the name from the partition map, and then matching against those. Any ideas for alternatives?
