I don't believe so.  Even if PA really doesn't understand, it's a
problem of PA itself to be fixed there.

In this particular case, we changed the driver side since it's an
easier path and very specific to the certain model.  But if it's about
the generic parser that is applied to all models, it's a different
story.
