It may be ugly, but it /works/. We can't predict what vendors will do in
terms of providing hotkey support in future, and exposing a limited
interface to userspace would probably just result in it having to be
extended later on, which again forces us into kernel patching.
With my Ubuntu hat on:
dev_acpi would make life a lot easier for us than the current solutions.
A single userspace application has the advantage that it can be
maintained in a nice cross-distribution way, and we can rapidly fold in
extra support based on testing reports.
