Actually, it probably wouldn't be too hard to have cgroups do that automatically - support the concept of a stub cgroup that was known about at compile time but wasn't active until its first bind, and have cgroups dynamically load the relevant modules when the user tried to mount it. Dynamically loading subsystems that aren't even known about at compile time would be probably a bit uglier.
