I have already seen the code you propose, but it does much more than
this: it loads almost *all* modules and I'm not inclined to add this to
the default configuration.
The debian hotplug package, with my patches, is now able to autoload the
modules for most hardware (notably floppy and rtc too), so the only
non-autoloaded modules left are ppp_generic and loop.
Also, I do not believe that the udev init script should be in the
business of loading drivers.
