Just to follow up on this... D-I currently installs discover solely because it's still needed for graphics card detection during X configuration. However, that also means that the discover init scripts are still being run, even though device detection and the loading of drivers is now completely covered by udev (and the initrd). Are there plans to use anything other than discover for graphics card detection? If so, in what timeframe?
