Yes. That's my thinking as well.
I was also thinking of having devfsd do more than simpler
persistance. I had plans, which I never tried to implement, of having
it assume some of the roles of pccardd and usbd...
Too bad I've lost the original start I made on devfsd. At least I
can't find it on my home systems right now. I fear I either lost it
in a disk crash, or when I left my last employer...
