All I'm saying is that _this_ usage is also valid. Nothing keeps other
users from defining the output panel; on the contrary: the driver at hand
already considers an _optional_ panel and handles it, conditionally. So
driver and binding spec are 100% in sync here.

This is much more straightforward than requiring an output and making up
some dummy code and params because it cannot reasonably be handled.
(Remember, if there is an output, the driver will make calls to the
"attached device" driver.)
