I think that using one control for both status leds (which is what we are usually talking about) and illuminator(s) is a bad idea. I'm fine with standardizing these, but can we please have 2 CID's one for status lights and one for the led. Esp, as I can easily see us supporting a microscope in the future where the microscope itself or other devices with the same bridge will have a status led, so then we will need 2 separate controls anyways.
