gEDA-dev: DBUS in external hid?

[Igor2 <igor2-at-NOSPAMinno_dot_bme_dot_hu>]

Hi!

On one hand I once again support the idea of using existing libraries over
writing a new custom code for everything. On the other hand if that lib is
really that big, I'm not sure it's a good idea to make it a must for all
users. 

I haven't checked the patch myself, but if it really consists a single .c
file and only a few modifications elsewhere in the code, can't it be an
external HID? Of course it wouldn't be a real HID: it wouldn't register a
HID structure, but PCB would load it from .so. For those who need it it's
mostly transparent, for those who don't need it easy to avoid. Actually
exactly this is what I'm doing with the scriptbale HIDs at the
moment... This also allows the user to decide what he needs instead of the
devs deciding what the user wants.
