I actually tried posting this patch three times. The first two times I actually said in the (more elaborate) explanation of the patch that I as well am moving toward devd. So, I see your point and it's why I didn't bother spending more than 30 minutes doing this patch. I'd like to see usbd go away. I'd like to help devd take it's place.
