Right, so there's two bits to hotplug - there's hotplugging individual components separately to the card and there's hotplugging cards en masse including some of their components. The latter case definitely does make sense and should have a reasonable chance of working already. Hotplugging individual components is much more of a nice to have, though as you say if someone wants to implement it that's obviously not a problem.
