That would break code that register drivers after the IO_Manager has been initialized and before the system state is updated. That would break my particular use case just because of that. Besizes , 
the IO manager will depend on the system state, but is okay I guess? I can also change from a int to a char to reduce data increase with only one byte?

What do you think?
