I like this one:  Automagically part of modules_install.  No break existing 
kernel build scripts for the expected-by-user build sequence? 

And please put 'make firmware_install' into 'make help' if that's the way 
you go.  

And another point, at the moment I seem to get all sorts of odd things 
built I didn't know were there?
