Yes. Ron is right, the current behaviour is strange, but I'm not sure
if we want to fix it after 3 years.
And I'm also not sure it the current behavior is so big problem. If you
want just one value than it makes more sense to use
# blkid -s UUID -o value /dev/sdb1
f0710187-82bf-4646-b2e3-11b017e31218
and if you ask for more tags by "-o export" than you cannot rely on
order of the lines, so DEVNAME= in the output cannot be a problem.

I have a patch to fix it, but now when I think about it it's probably
better to keep the current behavior than fix one regression by
another regression ;-)
