Yes but at least the first stage of booting is typically handled by grub, and I don't remember seeing a solution to keeping the grub disk designations stable as drives come and go.
Curious if anyone else has?
You mean (hd0) pointing to different device?
# cat /boot/grub/device.map (fd0) /dev/fd0 (hd1) /dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_<...1> (hd0) /dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_<...2>
I don't see problem.
The /boot/grub/menu.lst has /dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_<...1> and /dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_<...2> entries.
If it would be label used syntax is different, but still it seems that it works fine. It could that openSUSE grub is patched to allow this kind of naming.
So it does. Time to go update the fate request related to having a tool to update /etc/fstab. Obviously it should also update the grub device table as well.
