Over in the discussion about disk labeling, the blkid tool was mentioned. I ran it (no args), and it showed the label on all my partitions, including the /dev/dvd device, which doesn't have a DVD in it. The label it showed me was the last DVD I did have in it a few days ago, and I've rebooted several times since then. Where the heck is this coming from? Does the DVD drive itself store that?
man blkid -> /etc/blkid/blkid.tab sound very much like what you are in search of.
