Thoughts? Block is a rather simple subsystem regarding its interfaces, covering aspects of a single domain. I doubt anything like this can be done for character devices in general. They are just a tiny detail of all the many domains that use chardevs. For most domains, the devices are not interesting at all. So, I don't think anything like this makes much sense, and it should be left to the individual subsystems.
