All UNIX drivers historically set RTS and DTR upon opening, and Windows
drivers do the same... and this behaviour must be kept for compatibility I
think...

The only way I can imagine to keep RTS low on opens on selected ports, would
be to set up a parameter in /proc or /sys ? maybe its management could be
added to setserial ?

I have a similar problem with many RS485 cards, when the port is opened the
card takes the RS485 bus until RTS is turned back down by the opening
process.
