I'm wondering why giving a more readable kernel device name is so important.
Those will be used only by whom making decision what kind of devices to give
to some end users.   In the Plan 9 environment, there might be only limitted number
of such administrator, and all the others can be 'end users'.   Those well educated
administrator can refer a table showing one rune charachter device name
and long one.

Just a kidding. ☺
