Nobody really wants to keep a blacklist in sync manually with devices popping
up and going at a rate they do. The detection based on the BTN codes might or
might not be ideal. But on the other hand any device can only claim to be
something, so your theoretical device with all in one likely needs to present
several sub-devices, each for any function.
Nevertheless, atm this is broken and has been removed for the next upload of
the jaunty kernel and should be available as soon as it gets accepted.
