My main concerns are:

- Format of the data -- We now have plists, and should use them.  The  
format send down to user space should be the same format as device  
drivers (eventually) get for their attachment information.

- Related, I'm concerned about plugging into the "print" hook for this.

Basically, you're right on the money about "replace cf_loc with  
property lists to get somewhat better" :-)
