Agreed, an .init()/.preinit() callback might make sense.

Given you are planning to look at new parts, perhaps wait until you
have a series adding one of those rather than creating churn in the
driver before that point. Perhaps the BMP581 will require changes
in this area of the driver anyway and we don't want to end up
changing it twice!

Thanks,

Jonathan
