I'm unsure about the above... To me this looks like what the .match() function
of a bus would do. And when I read Bjorn's comment he brought up the
auxiliary_bus. I don't know about the auxiliary_bus but it is worth looking
into. Registering with a bus would streamline a lot of the code in this
patchset.

I'm out of time for today - I will continue tomorrow.

Thanks,
Mathieu
