I agree. A related issue is what to do if the user wants to pass-through a device that is already claimed by another driver. Following your comment to its logical conclusion, we should error out, not remove the original driver somehow---imagine the mayhem if the user loaded a module and it happily went along and removed some other module that happened to drive the same device.
