So to attenuate people's worries it should be stated in some form:

A: Such a functionality isn't needed on a properly configured
system. All devices present on the system should generate
hotplug events, loading the appropriate driver, and udev
should notice and create the appropriate device node.
In case of failure, please make a proper bug report.

Of course, you'll have to translate it to correct english.
