Actually, it does, because the tool currently implements constraints on
what you can and cannot do (e.g. in the given example it will refuse to
add the disk with ID 1 because it thinks it will mess up the mapping),
which means you have to resort to the oh-so-difficult echo "scsi
add-single-device 0 0 1 0" > /proc/scsi/scsi
However, the author has acked my objection and will look into it,
so hopefully there will be a useful tool soon :-)
