Package: inputlirc
Severity: wishlist

It would be useful if devices could be matched by name (maybe just part
of the name/pattern matching) instead of having to specify device nodes.
The device I'm interested in using inputlirc for, a DVB card's remote
control, doesn't have symlinks in /dev/input/by-id and the number it's
allocated for /dev/input/event* is subject to change eg by
adding/removing other devices between reboots or even after a kernel
upgrade.
