"WDM" and "WDF" are a little bit cryptic ...
install/drivers/{WDM,WDF}/ instead ?

This link is currently empty ;-) DP do not (yet) provides vista or ws7
packages of drivers.
And I found some vista drivers in DriversPacks (XP) packages of drivers.

install/drivers/{WDM,WDF}/{x86,x64}/ ?
It gonna be a major pain for people to split their drivers into up to 2
OS (up to) per 2 arch ...
Probably have to consider parsing .INF files of a driver and hints which
