Quirk for this?

[Matthew Jacob]

Oh, agreed. But rather than wander off into the umass code, thus
spreading quirks around hither and yon, would it make sense to just do
this in da which allows you to check transport type (now at least, for
CAM_NEWTRAN).

And this means, btw, that I don't believe it's necessary to fix all
instantiations of READ CAPACITY (so that camcontrol(8) works).


BTW- now that I think about it, I think that the 'taste' stuff that
GEOM does with disk devices (reading the last sector) actually
wouldn't work with tradtional MagnetoOptical devices anyway- you
cannot read unrecorded media in this case- so GEOM might have to be
dealt with at some point anyway.
