     I cannot reproduce what you describe. I just tried it with a usb stick:
kryn@apcnb98:~$ /sbin/blkid /dev/sdb2
/dev/sdb2: LABEL="Didier-Kryn-2" 
UUID="64f73abe-34b9-4d4c-bac7-6dd85f0e4696" TYPE="reiserfs"


     This was done on debian-wheezy, from the console, without any DE 
running, and even display manager stopped, and after a fresh reboot. If 
blkid, invoked by normal user, runs from cache, then it means it has 
been invoked by root after insertion - I suspect udev and consider it a 
good thing, and I can tell you that vdev does systematically invoke 
blkid for every block device.
