Actually, this functionality exists for a long time now, check
out modprobe(8) and depmod(8). It's actually quite easy to
configure /etc/modules.conf (the config file for modprobe) and
the kernel such that modules are loaded automatically as you
need them.

Norwegen ist das teuerste Land Europas. Eine Schachtel Marlboro kostet
umgerechnet 14,22 Mark, eine Flasche Jonny Walker kostet 78,00 Mark und eine
Dose Becks 6,79 Mark. In Norwegen - und das ist der Unterschied zu Deutschland
- erkennt man Besserverdienende daran, dass sie besoffen auf dem Hauptbahnhof
rumliegen.
