 I have validated the need for this to be implemented today.
 
 Having plugged the modem in before boot, I were able to fully utilize 
 the modem, with decent latency and bandwidth, excellent stability 
 (enough to cvs checkout src/ using cvs-over-ssh)
 
 Hotplugging with latest 5.99.10 kernel gave me crashes, filed as 
 port-amd64/41174
 
 Having this in 5.0/amd64 would be great. I am not sure there is still 
 time, but this modem sold extremely well in the last year in Brazil. Too 
 many people are using it, would be nice to have it well supported. Will 
 try to test on 5.0_RC3/amd64 as soon as I can.
