Nice. I have a temptation to copy-paste it right now, but there's just
no point, since I can't remember when I last plugged in an unknown
device.

Prehaps create a simple script that reads /etc/mtab and checks what
remusb mountpoints are used, picking a free one or creating additional
path.

Since it belongs to incron (and useless without one), shouldn't it be
only logical to put these lines into incron init.d script?
Sure, there'd be one more etc-update line if someone will ever change
the file, but that shouldn't happen too often, and besides, that's what
etc-update is for.
