Well, we don't have a underlying driver. We have libs for usb/scsi access but they are linked to each backend. We would need some sort of daemon to do this kind of detection but that would lose a lot of flexibility. I'll add the devfs problem to our TODO list. Maybe someone has a good idea how to solve it.
