The sad thing is that 'back in the day', Unix kernels *did* offer this
kind of standardized interface to input devices. Of course, being Unix,
none of them were the same. Sigh.
Yes, we still have one under Solaris - "VUID", which is what the
xf86-input-mouse & -kbd drivers talk to. In theory I could rearchitect
xf86-input-evdev to talk to VUID too, but have never had enough of a need
to invest that kind of time as long as -mouse & -kbd keep working.
