Ah, you want it after the code is loaded. That's different.
Would probably work just fine, no objection from me. Except you would
have to hack up the module-init-tools package :)
This will be pretty hard to implement in general as quite a few module
parameters do not allow changing once set and so you will have to
virtually reload modules while doing your "modprobe --apply.." trick.
