Why was it a pain to maintain?

I can imagine it is a pain if there is no automatic way to extract the
supported ids from the source code (like it is/was with X).  But if it
is possible to extract it automatically like is done with kernel
modules, I believe it should not be too hard.

Happy hacking,
