Considering porting acpi

Hello,
I've written an acpi command for toybox, and was thinking about porting it
to Busybox.
What I've written is a partial clone of acpi 1.7, implementing -abctV
(ac, battery, cooling, and thermal status; -ctV are currently living
in a patch). I easily could add -d.
Is this likely to be interesting?
The code I have is currently using dirtree_read(), which corresponds to
recursive_action().
Basically it looks in /sys/class/*/*/, /sys/class/power_supply,
and /sys/class/thermal for device status.
I could make it shorter if I use glob() instead of a recursive callback;
does anyone know whether glob() is likely to be a bloat problem?
Also, what would be the impact on license? It's currently "0-clause BSD".
Thanks,
Isaac Dunham.
