  (I also believe that there could be a slight distinction between kernels intended
  for CPU servers and kernels meant for terminals. While enterprise CPU servers
  are probably not going to need devices like VGA and sound, they should
  be given the opportunity to be free of them, terminals, on the other hand,
  might need some of the multimedia drivers.

Although, as Jim points out, you are quite right overall,
this part we already do: see the differences between 
/sys/src/9/pc/pcdisk and /sys/src/9/pc/pccpu.
