Nope, why are they needed, they are wasted space and time.

They use the device and it works?

That's all that is really needed, right? :)

If that doesn't work, they can look in the module list, or in sysfs,
like you said people already do today.  But why would they need to look,
your driver should be automatically loaded already, no user should ever
care about loading it.
