Hi Guenter,

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that this is unacceptable. I think this is
okay. I just wanted to highlight our general trend to move away from
continuing to add PCI IDs. We'll still need to do so in the short term
though.

Mario and I are working on some possible solutions. It'll be slow and
iterative, since we don't want to break existing functionality.

Thanks,
Yazen
