Ah, I see. I'm proposing something that explicitely *does not* have a
user-space daemon. I personally find kernel code that relys on a
user-space daemon to complete it's work as ugly (though of course
there are some cases where you don't have a choice in order to avoid
kernel bloat).
I'm proposing a small, kernel-space only scheme. Either /proc/dev, or
possibly devfs.
