after looking through the patches, i have some open points:
(i hinted at them in my previous answer a bit)
- we should make sure that only drives from the same
   changer can be selected via the gui and api

- imo it does not make sense to expose this to standalone drives,
   this would be a rather niche setup (we can still expose this
   there later), not sure how tricky that would be to implement
   in the drives drop down though, maybe another ui element would
   be better? e.g. a changer or standalone dropdown and if one
   selects a changer display a grid with checkboxes for the drives?
   for the start a normal multiselect dropdown would be enough though...
