Well, I think its going to be device specific, and it was not
specified well enough -- and I believe it needs more discussion.

Indicator pattern would be basically some sequence of intensities in
time, right?

And your hardware has some preset number of patterns it can do...?

There's a controller for 3-color LED in n900, and it takes programs
for patterns. So I for example had a program that computed prime
numbers and then blinked them on the LED, independently of the main
CPU.

So yes, patterns would be useful, but no, I don't know how to do them
in generic way, and thus would prefer to avoid defining them in
generic binding.
