Actually I thought about that a bit, and am not sure about that.

CSI-2 receiver may not be good place to associate lens and flash with,
agreed.

But is sensor a good place? In particular, phones with two cameras
cooperating (for example one black&white and one color) are getting
common. It seems to be true that each sensor has a lens and autofocus
motor associated, but flash LED is common, and both sensors are
designed to work as one device.

But yes, that's still better than placing it at CSI-2 receiver. But I
guess we should make sure that flash LED can associated with more than
one sensor, and maybe we should have some kind of "camera package"
entity.
