I disagree. The target is state, not an individual item that needs to be 
acted on. Having it as a single variable means that multiple changes are 
collapsed automatically, and that the the setting survives module reload.

It's like a volume control, it doesn't send messages when you turn it, 
it just sets a value.

(maybe a thermostat knob is a better analogy, with the driver being the 
circuitry around the knob that tries to control the temperature to match 
the setting)

I believe state-like controls will be useful for other settings, like 
ethernet link state.
