What dou you think about the idea, that because non-free drivers and
firmwares are droped from "main" we write wrapers and loaders which
GET the drivrs and firmwares from the manufacturer provided DriverCD's.
I have allready done this for two Enterprises here in Strasbourg using
"cabextract" or "unzip" to get the stuff...
I have done this wit an experimental "win32codec-graber" whichget the
windows codecs from the original Win95, Win98, Win2000 and WinXP CD's.
This will solv all problems distributing non-free stuff because $USER
which want to use non-free stuf must provide a legal licence to use it
which is generaly fullfiled if you have the Win-CD's.
Just an Idea.
