Well, ideally you don't have any kind of order:

/dev/bus/scsi/0/1

would be the device with id 0, partition 1.  This is what devfs does.
If my current system uses SCSI id's 5-9, and I add a drive with id 2,
nothing bad happens in this case.

This isn't a super big deal: disk additions are not that common now.  It
becomes a big deal later when we have stuff like Firewire drives.
