The point of doing global stuff is to do rfkill-input in userspace, the way userspace might want to do it. Without the global state being exposed, userspace really can't do anything properly, and rfkill-input is needed for any semblance of good rfkill input event handling. I can't say I strongly want it, since I am happy enough with rfkill-input, though. But the API to userspace _is_ incomplete if the global states and global functionality are not exposed. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
