I like it, probably. :) I like to connect directly to the daemon socket and it was easy to do, cause it's was a bit similar to udevstart. > An obvious disadvantage is that it would be harder to add support for > new bus types. Sure, it's easier to copy another *.rc script than to add a *_handler(), but udev has a release frequency high enough, that I don't think this would be a real problem. We will need to find out _what_ we need to do on coldplug, and not _how_ to do it, right?
