A distribution is an integrated set of software. Integrating software means we have to decide on features and default/base configuration for every software/package, and that includes the kernel. The distribution is built with the expectation that some kernel features will be available, and this is reflected by the configuration of the Debian kernels. If you build your own kernels, you have to take this into account. Now this change in libsane fixes real issues in pretty much the only way that's elegant, reliable and not a crude, dirty, fragile hack of some sort. You're always free to override the default udev rules provided by libsane using the previous method. You can generate the rules from the sane-backends source using sane-desc and the description files, using the udev mode instead of the udev+acl mode (sane-desc -m udev).
