Nop. It's because nobody has write a backend for them yet. Still there
may be other considerations also. Some of them are:
1)It's difficult (up to impossible) to get the specs
2)the actual hardware may need kernel level support (IO, IRQ, DMA,
direct support and such)
-However there was some discussion in this list about LHII, a kernel
level layer that will allow support for these kind of scanners. Search
for the LHII keyword in the list.
