No.
The idea of giving vendors hooks into the class driver at certain
points, especially after a device is identified, has been kicked
around. It might look like another kind of driver plugin that the class
driver loads. Would you use such hooks if they existed?
Can I even do that as an
application as opposed to a driver plug-in?
Yes. Most of what AMS does can be done by any application that wants
to, and more -- AMS protects certain propeties that are supposed to
only be set by the driver, but that's not enforced by the server. I'd
discourage people from going too deeply into this (e.g. playing around
with connections) but in the case of a hardware utility that wants to
slam its own icon onto a driver, that's a perfectly good reason. Just
set the property on the device.
