There has been...  some discussion on the value of doing this for MFD
cells where the MFD cell has no reuse capability (eg, when the driver
has very little abstraction from the top level chip binding) since we
don't really get anything from the abstraction if the driver can't be
reused and may limit ourselves (and others) in future.
