I agree, that would be a nice feature in usbd, but a workaround to gain the same functionality would be:
attach "/usr/sbin/moused `/usr/bin/perl -e 'while(<>) { $foo = $_ . $foo; } if($foo =~ /^moused_flags="(.*?)"$/im) { print $1; }' < /etc/rc.conf` -p /dev/${DEVNAME} -I /var/run/moused.${DEVNAME}.pid"
