We currently have no use for it (you probably noticed the said devices
had attached in Chris's case;  except npx, which is probably not in the
table).

As I said, we currently consider the ACPI namespace flat, so it is not
needed.  We don't really have the autoconf(9) machinery ready for making
it useful to do it another way.

Besides, if it is just a matter of attaching acpi1 at acpi0, you can
already do that (acpibus interface attribute already exists, just add it
to the list of attributes acpi provides).
