Yes, I agree too - trunk should ideally not contain non-working code.
Maybe non-working drivers belong in a branch until they've been fully
tested?

Maybe trunk should be locked to everyone except a "trunk manager" who
accepts patches from people, or merges different branches in to trunk.
That way trunk can remain stable and lean. Would that be a good idea,
or a bad one?
