As long as it's in a single well organized place in tools/, 
I'd be fine with that solution as well.

What doesn't work very well is disjunct, disorganized, 
inconsistent event descriptions all across the tooling and 
platform landscape - putting static tables into sysfs is a 
marked improvement over that, despite its memory usage.
