It's not "missing" in the "oops, forgot" sense. It just doesn't make
sense to give all users complete control for all firewire devices,
that's not how device management is supposed to work in the kernel.
There is apparently a lot of missing kernel support here, but unsafe
hacks around that won't be accepted upstream. You are of course
welcome to add one locally if you are in a trusted or single-user
environment.
