If=20 we are to configure this with hotplug events, we basically have to=20 resolve to use scripts. Hmm. But maybe we can be a bit more clever; after all, the default=20 script in /etc/hotplug.d/default just calls the appropriate agent. If we=20 were to implement this behaviour in the multiplexer, then we can use as=20 a block agent 'udev' and scripts for everything else, always assuming=20 that the other events are not as numerous. ccw events aside.
