No, I am not. On my laptop I have 7 USBPcap control devices (or on
Linux, 7 usbmon interfaces). This is not going to change, there'll
still be 7 USBPcap interfaces in the interface list in case of my
system. The change allows finer control for user regarding which
devices he wants to filter within selected USB Root Hub.

I think it's the way to go for USBPcap. Currently it either captures
complete traffic on selected USB Root Hub or nothing (pretty much just
like usbmon works on Linux). USBPcap creates one control device per
USB Root Hub and it's exclusive access.
