Wouldn't it be neat if one could manipulate the kernel quirks
information from userland (moderated by the securelevel)? So
when this strange USB device is plugged in and causes error
messages, one can just detach it, add one or more quirks, say by
having drvctl read or write plist entries from/to the kernel,
plug it in again, and just have it work.
