I know that part, I'm just wondering if it would be nice to have even dynamically loaded modules notice the kernel option so that the "usbcore" module would see the "blinkenlights=1" parameter from the kernel boot options when dynamically loaded?
That way, you wouldn't have to stop and figure out if a module was static or dynamic to decide if you need to edit the grub boot line or the modprobe.conf file.
