I hate cluttered up root directories. The first thing I do is a
rmdir /floppy /initrd; rm /vmlinux and all that stuff since 95%
of the machines I use don't NEED it.

I do like your first suggestion though:

/mnt/floppy
/mnt/floppy2
/mnt/cdrom
/mnt/cdrom2
/mnt/dos/a
/mnt/dos/b
/mnt/dos/c
/mnt/zip

.... ad infinitum
