I probably missed this discussion, but why not just ASK the device if it is interactive? I can easily imagine a case where a device might be interactive or not depending on how it was started. In fact, I don't have to imagine a case since the Quartz device in R-devel can have exactly this behavior. Something like a Cairo device might also have this behavior, though I don't know if the current Cairo devices support it.
