Personally, I think we need a usb 'page' or 'pages' but not a chapter, mainly because many vendors document USB, we do not seem to. Off on another note, scanners with KDE and GNOME would be a good section, and while those can fit under the multimedia, the USB under multimedia would be very optional.
