Well, your solution was correct after all. The only thing missing was
the psmouse module, which needed to be added to the initrd.
Before adding that module, only a generic mouse device appeared in sysfs
and my udev rule had no attribute sensitivity which it wanted to set.

Thanks to Dave for pointing out the break-option which proved to be
useful for examining sysfs as seen by the initrd.

Now the struggle after rebooting has again lost some of its quirks ;)

Greetings,
Christoph
