no, it would provide names like

        MOTU 828 mkII channel 1+2
        RME HDSP (#1)
        Builtin Audio

to the user.

it would also fix a myriad of other problems in ALSA, such as its
reliance on interrupts that occur at regular sample-based intervals,
its presentation of a multiplicity of programming models, and its
lack of reasonable way to present itself to ordinary users.
