Lets brainstorm ;)

- Not an easy task as the modules will collide with the ones that are the 
kernel I guess. 
- Loading the driver ("make insmod" ;) ) should be done by an initscript and 
configured by a *.conf file in /etc/
- the binary rpm should have the name of the kernel(uname -r) in it. 

(- I have it still on my TODO for Mandrake, also vdr & plugins)
