This is not needed (I think). You can load modules 
via /boot/loader.conf, but may be more confortable if we 'go modules' 
in a future.

As an example, before that, I load my sound module 
via /boot/loader.conf:
snd_via8233_load="YES"

Now, I use this on /etc/rc.conf:
mixer_modules="snd_via8233"

I also have plans to take usb support out of my kernel and use:
usbd_modules="usb ugen umass ueagle"
