    Hmmm, but ide-scsi is used for a lot more than cd recorders these
    days. Alan mentioned 'crazy' SATA devices back in April.

    (Not that I'm suggesting that it is particularly sane to deal with an
    SATA connected printer by presenting it as a SCSI device, but I just
    can't see how ide-scsi could successfully be removed now :-( )
