I always need patches against the latest GIT tree. Otherwise I can't
merge them and submitting them in a proper format helps me to apply
them.

So the option should be commented out by default since otherwise every
installation now uses vendor id 1234 and that is actually a valid one.
Also the description above makes no sense.

I committed a patch by myself to the GIT tree now that should fix this.
However there is one thing missing. The DID supports USB based vendor
ids and Bluetooth based ones. So we need to support both. Feel free to
come up with something.
