Hmm, this is problematic : a lot of rules outside udev are using
ACL_MANAGE to specify ACL should be set for some devices. I would
suggest to not "deprecate" ACL_MANAGE outside 70-acl.rules but
internally to 70-acl.rules, use another variable.

Oh, do you know which? The only one I'm aware of is gnome-bluetooth
for /dev/rfkill, which is evil, bad, and wrong:

   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=514798

It really shouldn't be used outside of 70-acl.rules.

For a quick check on my test system :

/etc/udev/rules.d/60-libpisock.rules
needed for Palm devices

/etc/udev/rules.d/69-floppy-acl.rules
needed for mtools

/etc/udev/rules.d/69-gammu-acl.rules
needed for gammu

/lib/udev/rules.d/60-libmtp.rules
needed for MTP devices

/lib/udev/rules.d/69-printeracl.rules
for parallel printers (not sure it is still needed these days)

/etc/udev/rules.d/55-Argyll.rules:
needed for colorimeters (this file is supposed to be used across various udev releases and distribution, even if COLOR_MEASUREMENT_DEVICE is now merged in udev upstream : I've removed this specific ACL_MANAGE in our Mandriva package)

/lib/udev/rules.d/95-gcm-colorimeters.rules
for gnome-color-manager : it kind of duplicate some of the work done in argyllcms rules, because you might not have argyllcms installed initially (Richard is going to rename the rule which is currently executed after 70-acl which is a bug).

I might have missed other rules, I didn't do a full search across our package database.
