I remember these topics coming up, and from what I understood about
most of the issues people where trying to address devfs seemed to
handle most of the issues.  Specifically in regards to jailing, one is
able to create devfs rulesets per jail.  Thusly an admin is able to
have some level of controll over what devices are accessable per jail,
and how they are used.

I'm one of those people who think devfs is a good thing, but as ike
said what issue are you running into?
