My problem is, I can (easily) be drawn into a quick hack that isn't inline with what you had in mind, both near-term and long-term. E.g., the above 'glob' hack.


Well, on FreeBSD, I can configure usbd to create a symlink from the
device to a well-known location with a < 30 second edit of /etc/usbd.conf.
It will do this when you plug it in at runtime, or at boot time (when
usbd is started).  If Linux comes with something like usbd, that's what
I'd use as a quick hack.


devfsd, but not everyone runs devfs. Hotplug could be taught to do it, but doesn't treat the initial driver loading as a hotplug event...


Life sucks, chapter XIV :-)
