1)
Is someone currently working on or has some stuff prepared for EHCI
support for plan9?

2)
I found that usbd has sometimes problems with replugging a usb
device. After killing usbd and restrating it anything works fine. But
this has the disadvantage that I loose other previously started usb
drivers like for example a usb/usbaudio running in another window.

It would be nice if can be made possible that you plug a device in and
usbd activates it and then send a plumbing message. Then some plumber
rules can start up the apropriate fileserver. In the same way 'Local mount ...'
works. Here should be a generic rule that these usb driver filesystems just
exit if they encouter problems during device pulling so the whole thing
can start over when the device is plugged in again. Does that make any
sense?
