As a 'last word' override, as with rc.conf?

Gets my vote!

rc.conf is a bit too much of a 'catch-all' since rc.subr arrived,
not enamored of further complications there.

S'pose ~/dev/conf or ~/localdev.conf could live in /dev just as well?

- perhaps read-in by MAKEDEV so as to 'reach out and touch'
 perms and such?

- Or are we [ re-inventing | improving upon] device hints?
