Well, only the /sbin/hotplug mechanism is actually called "hotplug"
and has direct kernel support. It's referenced in the kernel
config help for CONFIG_HOTPLUG. All in all, I think it
has more of a claim to being "official" than "usbmgr".
Actually a key part of the idea was to get away from the need to
have an extra daemon running all the time, consuming system
resources.
