I thought the first versions were still using /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug
interface?

Yes, I'm aware that people use udev in initramfs/initrd... the point is, I
disagree with it... I think fullblown udev for initramfs/initrd is just a huge
overkill -- not that most people actually care...

Hmm, I guess I could; I thought it'd be faster (and it'd involve less hassle
while discussing it with people) to write a fully working application, at least
as a proof of concept...

Thanks for your feedback
