Is there any chance to attach the device at runtime to the VM? Our use case is this: We've got a VM which has CUPS installed, and any USB printers attached to the physical box need to be passed through to the VM. Printers are turned off when not in use, and thus they need to be attached in an automatic manner to the VM.
