Yes, at the PCI level I think that's exactly right.

For "network" hotplugging, I'm not sure what the analagous policy would be ... what comes to mind is getting the network interface brought up exactly once. I saw some flakey behavior there a while back, maybe it's gone now. Aren't there distro portability issues, like "ifup" not being universal?

That sounds good. Can that also understand the network hotplugging? Or is that going to need work yet?

I'm not sure what you mean? When cardmgr sees a card that has a hot plug PCI driver, it will basically ignore the card completely and leave everything to /sbin/hotplug. Isn't that what we want?
