Yes, I know (and besides, the support used to be quite buggy
under 2.6 although the worst problems may have been fixed
by now).

I'm about to look into adding proper support for ATAPI. Using the
cdrom packet interface seems straightforward although from a quick
glance at the code, it appears as if the cdrom packet interface
always blocks so I'll have to use a dedicated thread for each
concurrent CD access.
