I think it is better to add a file /etc/udev/rules.d/71-my-uaccess.rules
with just the line you need to add, instead of copying the whole
70-uaccess.rules file. That way you still get the upgrades to the standard
file. Note that the names of the files make no difference, other than the
order of execution.
