You shouldn't normally have to define these. Why are they needed?

Maybe it's better to wait for a user to show up, and then we can decide
whether we actually want to have them this way, or if there is a better
solution for the particular use case.

Normally, we'd want to make run-time decisions based on properties
of the nodes a driver is working on, not the global machine compatible
string.
