Exactly.  The changes I made to the daemon yesterday might have saved me ~15 
minutes of walking someone through getting it running on #kernelnewbies a 
couple days ago.

And I'm about to have the helper do whatever insmods are necessary as well.  
I'd like to get the HOWTO on this down to 'eth0=ethertap,blah,blah,blah' on 
the kernel command line and 'ifconfig eth0 blah blah up' inside UML.

Memory and disk are cheap, especially compared to people's time.  If you can 
spend some of the former and save some of the latter, you win.

Interesting, I hadn't heard about this.  Do you have pointers to any 
discussions?
