Well, it does not make any harm either. But adding to it will probably have
not much useful effect.

I have a piece of shell that can produce the following output (including
80 columns word-wrap, I was in a playful mood):

  Enabled optional drivers:
    Input:     important: dvdnav(internal) networking

Shall I submit it? The level of any module can be set dynamically, so it is
possible to write:

linux && set_module_level important alsa

to adapt the list of drivers to what actually makes sense for the target.

Any suggestion on enhancing the layout or wording would be of course
appreciated.
