The day is coming where USB3 or 3.1 is going to be the standard for
motherboards, and it's going to be difficult to find a MoBo with USB2.

Who within the Illumos or OI community is capable of doing the necessary
development to add full USB3 support?

Does anyone know if there's been discussion of funding someone to
write the necessary driver(s)?
