The reason the ATAPI subsystem isn't under CAM is because Soren hasn't been
terribly interested in doing it. Justin and I have offered to help, but we
won't be the ones doing the bulk of the work if it happens.
Perhaps if Soren or someone else has the time and inclination at some
point, it will happen. I wouldn't count on it anytime soon, though.
