Subject: module parameters versus kernel command line

Just curious: Is there any reason even dynamically loaded
modules shouldn't be able to find module parameters on
the kernel command line? I haven't actually investigated
the code involved (since I have no idea where it is :-),
but it sure seems like it would be convenient to have
a single place to put module parameters where they
would always be found regardless of the module's static
or dynamic build mode (especially when multi-booting
different kernels built different ways).
