Right. That's what the last paragraph of the commit log message is about
- fixing that indentation would require a much more invasive change that
would touch all the other device parsing functions, which could turn any
potential backport into a real headache, so I chose to not fix it in
this series.

In a way it is a bugfix for that feature (since the functionality of the
"plugged" hook is severely limited without it). I would feel more
comfortable about pushing it, though, if danpb took a look at the commit
log message for patch 5/7 and gave his okay on the change in the XML. My
opinion is that I should have done it this way to begin with, but Dan
has much better insight than I do on what is and isn't good for
management applications.
