New question - hot plug support on TWE driver / 3ware board

It appears not to be present in the "twe" driver.

That is, if I hot-unplug a drive (such IS supported in my carrier) the device
errors out and disconnects, but the driver complains for quite a while before 
giving up - it clearly didn't detect the hot disconnect "cleanly."

If I then plug the drive back in, it is not recognized automatically.  If I
then kick "gmirror" it will rebuild, but there is no console message
indicating that a hot plug operation was recognized and occurred.

Is there a control program for the "twe" driver devices, and/or an option
somewhere I'm missing?  I've looked around and in the man pages, and found
nothing thus far.  Or is hot plug/unplug simply not supported with this
board/driver set?

Thanks.
