No, we're working on something more lightweight (See

Userland would be satisfied if we had a sysfs node with a description of the 
current scenario, e.g.

"charger" (our 1A charger is connected)
"gadget" (we are connected to a host that enumerated us)
"host" (we are connected to a gadget)

the device daemon can then load the proper module based on either user 
interaction or context (profile or preference).
