We already have it in 1.3 as a side effect of using udev. If you check the list
of loaded modules just after login prompt appears you will see that not only
pata/sata/scsi and network modules but hardware sensors (lm_sensors and
watchdogs) are loaded... I think we can add a comment to setup (or interface
examples) that module defining is optional now.

Neither have I. Probably it will be easy to begin using DL, but developers and
community surely will be faced with questions and requests like "I can't do it
using webmain, please add the functionality...". IMHO we should push DL users to
learn and use CLI instead of webmin/whatever...
