The general detection process is already accelerated by replacing the Foomatic XML database with a compressed PPD archive and by a small bug fix in system-config-printer. Nevertheless we also need to have the option of Jockey only searching for a driver for a given device without scanning the whole system. So we should consider the patch as an interim solution for Ubuntu until bigger architecture changes for a general solution are done.
