True. I found this slightly halpful, but I'm not sure which commands are
safe or how to use them. Clearly, several would impact service.

The things I most often need are the manufacturer and device IDs so I
can put the appropriate rules into devd.conf. Plain old 'usbdevs -v"
gave me that. I am pretty sure that usbconfig can, too, but I have no
idea how.

I will put in a PR on this.
