Having > to change the driver every time a new reset is discovered or needed to There is no need to change the driver. Once it is set in the binding, to let's say 7, it must stay like this.

Sure, and this is not a binding. Please do not make binding things which are not bindings, because later you (you as in plural) come and request to change it, which must not be allowed. But because people stuff not-binding-things into the binding they use it later as arguments that it is allowed to change. As I wrote before, I complained about this already several times and I will be complaining every time. Best regards, Krzysztof
