Ok, week or two would be ok, couple of months is not. And all I need
is single hook in common structure.

So if g_endpoint_config hook looks sane to _you_, I suggest we simply
proceed. Now, maybe Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
or Laurent or Julien will want a different solution, but
then... they'll have to suggest something doable now, not in couple of
months.

Does that sound like a plan?

Mauro added to cc list, so we can get some input.

Best regards,
