I would like to see generic method to turn off input device (or just "mute" it if device does not support turn off). Similar problem is also on laptops or other portable devices. E.g when I close LID of my laptop I want to turn off internal input devices (keyboard, touchpad, trackstick) without need to unload evdev Xserver drivers (or killing Xserver). Another use case is to turn off keyboard (also from kernel tty on Ctrl+Alt+Fx) which cannot be unplugged (internal laptop keyboard).
