I don't think so, I'd not expect the individual drivers to be doing anything user visible here - if we know what a digital transformation looks like the framework should be offering anything that's needed to users (and hiding controls that don't have any practical control in a given system). > > Is there any *need* for these to be user configurable?

Internal testing often requires things that can't be exposed to users, the extreme examples are things like battery chargers with health and safety issues if the full range of control is available.
