It'd be nice if other source modules of the kernel could be run in
userspace too, like GEOM modules.
(I'm not saying this should be part of Kip's goals; I just thought
about it whilst Nathan was talking about why partition stuff is
written out early during bsdinstall - because he needs the feedback
from GEOM.)
