It does not seem difficult...
1st we can create a /etc/hotplug/usb.ext_scripts (containing the names of
programs we have to call) an then execute it line by line from usb.agent.
We can also use something like this
$SCRIPT plugged
$SCRIPT nodriver
$SCRIPT unplugged
$SCRIPT ok
so $1 in your script is the exit status of the various operation done by
hotplug script.
Btw I think the devfs approach is better...
