Comment #1: Please observe the difference between cleanup and development.
I think your patches already went too far under the "cleanup" heading.

Comment #2: We need a nice, general interface for the usual things,
and a very detailed direct-to-hardware interface for special purposes.
[Change the behaviour of a zip drive from "big floppy" to "removable disk"
and back. Take care of passwords on disks. Unstroke a 32+GB disk. Etc.]
