So, changing this means a complete different rethought on how to do this.
As somebody said, it could be nice to implement some kind of event framework
so different actions can be attached/dettached to events easily. But this
requires much work and more code... lets see if I can do that... ;)

And for names, it may be kern.evt.<event>.<action>.<action_params> (note the
.evt. level which can simplify things in sysctl program, as I see it).
