I agree, the old IDE drivers need to be kept around until this bug is fixed. I have an HP DVD Writer 640v external usb drive that would not work on Feisty even though it worked flawlessly on Dapper and previous Kubuntus. I solved the problem by removing the drive from it's portable housing and installing it internally, but this solution won't work for most users. Also, I created bug report 212042, https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/212042, with a similar problem with my hard drives, Via IDE chipset and Gutsy. The cutting edge is nice, but we still need some compatibility with older devices, at least until the bugs are fixed.
