So here is another case where it looks like we ultimately need bridges. Hopefully the hardware usecase is obvious enough here that bindings will be straight forward anyway... Fits in well with Lars' point about everything is going more generic and we need to be ready for it. Sounds like we are a bit late already... I am beginning to wonder why I opened this can of worms!
