Hmm, something similar could be used to create thoose /dev/disk/by-*,
for a static /dev:

find /dev -type b | xargs blkid | sort | some_script_to_populate_by_xxx

But if that is only a transformed /sys/class/block, wouldn't it be
easier if there was a /sys/class/uuid or similar ?

Also man blkid says:

# man blkid | grep -A6 ' -L label$'
       -L label
              Look up the device that uses this label (equal to: -l -o  device
              -t  LABEL=<label>).   This lookup method is able to reliably use
              /dev/disk/by-label udev symlinks  (dependent  on  a  setting  in
              /etc/blkid.conf).   Avoid using the symlinks directly; it is not
              reliable to use  the  symlinks  without  verification.   The  -L
              option works on systems with and without udev.


so if /dev/disk/by-* isn't reliable, why do we have them ?
