Well, they are already moving in that direction with the newbus driver
interface. It really simplifies converting your driver to a kld if
you write it properly. Now a perfect addition would be a daemon or
something that takes care of loading/unloading all of them so that the
user doesn't have to fill a script with kld(un)load commands.
