We moved away from uevents for this kind of stuff (in the general sense) because they, to put it lightly, are NOT appropriate for input-event-like events. Moving any sort of input event back to uevents is something I do NOT want to support, ever. Any userspace that wants it for backwards compatibility can, and DOES synthesize uevents from input events. So, can you make a very strong case for this uevent? -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them. One disk to bring them all and in the darkness grind them.
