easycap.ko absence



hi,

why easycap.ko module, for usb frame grabber (device 05e1:0408) is not
compiled as a module into the distribution's (amd64/testing) kernel
(2.6.38-2-amd64)?
$ grep EASYCAP /boot/config-2.6.38-2-amd64
# CONFIG_EASYCAP is not set
this driver is nowadays part of vanilla kernel, not marked as
experimental. i've compiled it manually and it worked with my device out
of the box. are there any plans to include this driver in future kernel
packages?
