This is definitly something that is needed..
The question is whether the CAM and ATAPI authors feel it is 
right. We are guided by them (even though we desperatly need this).

Personally even if not perfect.. it's better than nothing and we should
probably commit something like it. or based on it..
(having looked at it I think it seems fine.)


So here's my vote for a quick commit.
