The block GPIO stuff is just following that design pattern.

So what do you think about my just proposed idea of always having the
"value" argument present, but only useable when "exported" is "1"? Now
only talking about the block gpios, but later maybe also for gpios?

We should atleast be consistent and do it the same way for
blocks as individual gpios.

But I would only do this if you and Greg consider it reasonable.

I'm still afraid of this whole thing and would seek Grant's consent.
