Hey Jos,

Karanbir Singh of CentOS fame started a project to address this called
Dasha:

 https://projects.centos.org/trac/dasha/

"The CentOS extra drivers project ( dasha ) aims to bring easy access
to hardware that is not supported by the default installed kernel.
...
The goal is to deliver an ExtraDrivers ISO and DiskImage file that can be
used at install time. And also to provide an rpm with the drivers, so that
people can install these drivers once the machine is already installed. As
much as possible, we should use weak-updates in order to not require a
complete driver rebuild on kernel updates."

I am not sure what the status is of the tool though. In any case it can
use more interested parties.
