Sorry for the late reply. I'm absolutely willing to submit small and useful
bits, I'm just a bit unclear about the policy. If bootup messages are
intentionally excluded, then some of the current rules should in fact be dropped
as well. Does bootup also mean that hot-pluggable stuff should be excluded?
These messages will be the same in non-bootup contexts...

Thanks,
Michael
