Yes. One thing that bothers me about some of the discussion is the assumption
of one path or the other with solving things. Linux generally takes the 
approach of allowing the unusual when it makes sense. We have similar
issues with certain combo PCI cards (especially parallel-serial combo) and
they just have their own driver, because its easier than a giant magical
sharing layer in the PCI core
