Don't bother about that case. These days essentially every new device uses the Bulk-Only transport with Transparent SCSI protocol, because the other transports are much slower. (And besides, there's no way to pass that information using the new_id interface.) This default will work more than 99% of the time. If somebody really needs to use a strange device, they can always add an entry to unusual_devs.h.
