I'm not quite following. You'd still have per-profile interfaces on the adapter path. > Unless you are proposing a generic Watcher API that could somehow be > shared by all profiles (including a single shared interface for the > watcher object)?

I was only saying that the interfaces should go from Device to Adapter.
