ok I coded the suggested tool.
it works with the following rule :
KERNEL="dm-[0-9]*", PROGRAM="/sbin/devmap_name %M %m", NAME="%k", SYMLINK="%c"

I don't know if it's right to keep this tools packaged with multipath because
it's widely more general.

Maybe Joe should merge it in the device-mapper package or provide the
functionnality through dmsetup ?
