HTML5/D3: Configuring USB devices #274

Some USB devices that have generic type (FTDI, Silicon Labs, etc) cannot always be autodiscovered. It would be great if the D3 client could allow you to setup these devices and tell the system what's plugged in.

This would be make the setup process much less daunting for those inexperienced and would also greatly reduce the amount of documentation (or even support questions) needed to get up and running.

i agree. i think it's just an issue of getting it prioritized... sigh.

Just as a heads up, @ErikDeBruijn, I am adding this to the 2.0 release milestones. If you have any ideas for making this feature happen, I'd love to here!
