SCSI-II scanner command list - specification file - common lib

I've tried SANE 0.73 on my linux 2.0.30 with a LEO scanner. It did not
work and it will not work (anyway my question is not related to my
scanner).

I've looked into SCSI-II specifications and there are a set of SCSI-II
commands for SCSI-II scanners (with some mandatory command list and
some optional commands).

You can have a look at SCSI-II command list at
http://tx.scitexdv.com/SCSI2/SCSI2-15.html

Why don't we have a common library for all SCSI-II scanners and have
scanner dependent command list in a specifications file (text/ plain ASCII
file) ?

This helps in adding new SCSI-II scanners by changing only the
specifications file (provided you get your hand on the Scanner SPECs).
This truly helps when we have latest scanners from the same manufacturer.

I appreciate some comments on this one.
