I see your point and agree the current direction isn't scalable, but I am not sure about the definition of 'first class device'.
Did you mean 'component' at the same level as the 'platforms' and 'codecs', with all the DSP stuff nicely packaged and maintained in a self-contained way?
Or a subcomponent that might be part of those platforms and codecs?
As far as I can see for the Intel systems it's looking like a first class component - there will be some systems where the DSP is embedded in something (like the big CODECs) but even there it's easier as it's contained within the device rather than affecting multiple devices which is the big issue here.
