That's weird. When I run 'which setfacl' I'm told it's at
/usr/bin/setfacl. On further examination, that's a symlink to
/bin/setfacl. Changing it in the action file didn't make a difference.

Assuming this will eventually work, would daemonlet=true need to be added
to get vdev to deal with plugging and unplugging the scanner after boot?
