Um. The CAM tranport in question would not be a reimplementation of
the USB layer, of course. What I was mentioning was the possibility
of having a CAM transport that wraps a uscan device (just as there is
one already that wraps umass devices to make them appear as SCSI disks).
This would allow all USB scanners that use an SCSI command set to be
accessible through pass*, and thus be supported by any scanning software
that can use a SCSI scanner.
