    I have the same concern.
    
    I believe kstat was "sold" to us as a low-latency low-locking collector
    of information designed to help improve device drivers.
    
    Sensors on the other hand, are for user consumption.  In particular
    this seems to come off a usb device which is in effect partly polled
    information.
    
    So why is this here?  Probably due to dlg's familiarity with his own
    subsystem.  But it isn't where the data belongs.
