That isn't the best, though I understand the rationale behind this now. There was another reason I asked this: the module which I am currently developing for login to LUKS with smartcard tokens requires the core modules (smartcard udev drivers as well as core executables) to be compiled/build with certain options (the standard/desktop-related builds will NOT work - i.e. using inst_* from dracut_functions on these on the already installed libraries/executables will NOT work), so for this module I need to carry quite a few .so and executable files, which will be architecture-dependent and have to be compiled in advance.
