Hi Niklas,

Thank you for the patch.

I'm wondering if model_ should be stored in ASCII. Ideally we probably
want to have a model property provided explicitly by the kernel (as
opposed to extracting it from the entity name as we do now, which is a
bit of a hack), and that should then probably be specified as ASCII.

Anyway, that's for later. For now, this patch looks good, but I want to
complete the discussions about the Model property before acking it (it's
hard to tell if it will fit the purpose of what the property will become
without knowing yet what that will be :-)).
