Hmm, you can somewhat do that with 2.4.xx. I wrote myself a script for this. I 
will create a link to the device and create a tree for each partition on the 
stick (determined by fdisk). It needs some manual work ($PRODUCT and $MODEL 
strings) but after that works. It even removes the created dirs when you pull 
out the stick. However, only one of each kind may be used:

$ cat /etc/hotplug/usb/usb-storage
#!/bin/sh
GROUP=users
MODEL=
LINK=
DISKDEV=
TARGETDIR=
if [ "$TYPE" = "usb" -a "$ACTION" = "add" ]; then
    case "$PRODUCT" in
    # a line from /proc/bus/usb/devices like:
    # P:  Vendor=07c4 ProdID=a200 Rev= 1.29
    # is here:
    # 7c4/a200/129
    #
    # MODEL is taken from "sg_map -i" output,
    # with vendor and model and revision seperated by
    # ".*" instead of spaces (regex)
    #
    #TARGETDIR might be set, too, but there is a default below
    126f/2168/200)
        MODEL="USB 2.0.*Mobile Disk.*2.00"
        LINK=/dev/media/usbstick0
        ;;
    7c4/a200/129)
        MODEL="USB Mass.*FlashCardReader"
        LINK=/dev/media/mmcreader0
        ;;
    esac
    modprobe sd_mod;
    modprobe sg;
    if [ "$REMOVER" ]; then
        echo '#!/bin/sh' >> $REMOVER
    fi
    if [ "$MODEL" ]; then
        DISKDEV=`sg_map -i | egrep "$MODEL" | awk '{print $2}'`
    fi
    if [ "$LINK" -a "$DISKDEV" ]; then
        ln -sf $DISKDEV $LINK
        if [ ! "$TARGETDIR" ]; then
            TARGETDIR=/media/usb/`basename $LINK`
        fi
        if [ "$TARGETDIR" ]; then
            for i in `fdisk -l $DISKDEV | grep ^$DISKDEV | cut -f1 -d" "`; do
                PARTNUM=`basename $i | cut -c 4-`
                ln -sf $DISKDEV$PARTNUM ${LINK}p$PARTNUM
                mkdir -p -m 0755 $TARGETDIR/$PARTNUM
            done
            if [ "$REMOVER" ]; then
                echo "rm -rf $TARGETDIR" >> $REMOVER
            fi
        fi
        if [ "$REMOVER" ]; then
            echo "rm -f ${LINK}*" >> $REMOVER
        fi
    fi
    if [ "$REMOVER" ]; then
        chmod u+x $REMOVER
    fi
fi


Maybe it already fits your needs.
Just the usual note: works for me but use at your own risk.

PS: Package "sg3-utils" is required.
