Hmm ... is there some simple example module on the web, doing both?
I probably wouldn't have seen a notice, and haven't had time to do
more than glance at the persistence patch in the modutils FTP area.

Was the output format text, or binary?  Tools could be easier if
they could rely on text.

It'd be nice if Linux had a better solution than distro-specific
config files to hold device configuration data, and I could see
the module persistence stuff evolving into that.  It'd sure help
make hotplug policy software be more portable if it could rely on
all hotpluggable drivers (network, media, ...) using such a scheme.
