All looks good to me :)

You last:
"the API can return a boolean flag about "if this driver is not installed, there will be a free driver taking over", which would be true for nvidia/fglrx, and false for bcmwl."
This can address bug #1025323 without adding any new API. I guess this will be sweet (despite duplicated info of model and vendor. :)

About the heuristic for "Graphical drivers", "Wifi drivers", I dont' see a nice and easy way to implement it, any idea?
