This would be nice, but is this possible without owning the device ?
This is the main difference with power button.

Also, i would like to recall that i'm gnome-scan developer. For now, i'm
going to write gnome-scan with file and sane backend, but i'm still
willing to have a nice backend using hal/avahi for probe and handling
buttons (and all sensors like paper-in, etc.).

Note that scanners has not only buttons they have tons of sensor. Some
have wheel allowing to choose a value. App should be able to know this
wheel has been touched dynamically.

�ienne.
