Subject: worth separating serial from parallel ATA kernel options?

  asked from a position of appalling ignorance, but would it be more
organized to be able to select serial ATA functionality separately
from parallel ATA?  i ask only because the current (lengthy) menu
seems to randomly mix them together and, more significantly, serial
ATA is categorized as production level, while parallel ATA is still
tagged as experimental.  just wondering ...

rday

p.s.  it's also amusing to see that things in that menu graduate from
"EXPERIMENTAL" to "Very Experimental" to "HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL".  i'm
scared to see where this goes next.  :-)
