Perhaps not, but you have to start somewhere. Can you think of an
implementation that works well and is scalable that can be implemented
entirely in user-space and doesn't require some special support or
feature from the OS? If not, then maybe it needs to be abstracted into
a user-space and kernel-space portion, and we'll just have to find ways
to get support working for different OSes under that user-space
abstraction. Granted, see how well that's worked with HAL so far... :-p
(though in all fairness, I thought I heard that someone was working to
port HAL to FreeBSD).
