Sure, that's obvoius. I kind of miss the point of this conversation now.
Blindly removing the prefixes for id's which are not unique otherwise,
and usually not even the same across buses for the same device, seems
not a reasonable solution to me.
Care to explain your ideas again, and give examples for real hardware
