Well, the one problem with that is the "used by" column only indicates 
if a given module is used by other modules.  I know for a fact my fglrx 
video module isn't used by other modules, but I definitely need it for 
video in X - similarily, many other modules perform useful functions 
without being used by some other module.

... I think I confused myself a little there; hope you understand what I 
mean. :P
