anyone using "sysfsutils" in a practical way?

  as i'm reviewing the courseware i'll be teaching in a couple weeks,
i'm making notes as to what should go, what should stay and what
should be added to bring it entirely up to date.

  i'm going to de-emphasize proc files, other than to show some
examples in the fs/proc/ directory if students want to hack up a
couple simple ones for their drivers, knowing that they're not meant
to be permanent.

  and i want to more emphasize kobjects and sysfs.  to that end, i'm
aware of the "sysfsutils" package, although i haven't used it yet.  is
anyone familiar with it, to the point they're *using* it for useful
things, as opposed to just playing with it?  i'll probably get around
to checking it out this weekend, just curious as to how i'd promote
its use if/when the time comes.  thanks.
