Without the libusb based proprietary stack, the device is unusable under linux.

If i correctly understand, libusb need a driver to be present in the first 
place,
(even a useless generic-usb) to be able to grab the device. If we 
unconditionally
blacklist the device and the ebeam driver isn't loaded (not compiled for 
example), no way
for libusb (and the stack) to handle the device.

As stated before, i'm not comfortable with the risk of breaking other 
hypothetical support,
even proprietary.
