Yeah, I guess that is nicer to split different stuff and be able to
have proper names.

I also think we should replace:
  VendorID=0781
  ProductID=7432;7433;7434;7435;74c0
With something like:
  DeviceMatch=usb:0781:7432;usb:0781:7433;usb:0781:7434:usb:0815:4711
or:
  DeviceMatch=usb:0781:7432|7433|7434;usb:0815:4711

It should allow to carry multiple vendors for the same device, and
also prefix it with usb, to be able to add matches for other
subsystems too.

Thanks,
