I would appreciate some elaboration on what kernel module loader does exactly, since none of the modules get loaded automatically during runtime. Understanding this will perhaps help to decide which features will stay as a module and which are the ones that will be built in.
I have never used automatic loading, but from what I have heard, it will work in cases such as loading filesystem modules and netfilter (iptables) target modules.
I'd imagine it does not work in cases of modules for particular network interface cards, because it is not able to unambiguously determine which is the appropriate module to load (although perhaps it ought to be able to in the event that there is only a single such module).
