The concern with moving one (major) application into the kernel is that this will weaken the testing/motivation to get zerocopy, aio and sophisticated notifications working well for userspace.
Actually, to the contrary, TUX was in fact an impetus for the userlevel zerocopy and AIO bits :-)
I personally don't see anything wrong with something like the TUX engine being in there. At the same time I want to reiterate what Ingo said which is what we can do in userspace catches up to what TUX can do then we pull it out and move on to the next thing :-)
