You're spot on in case of a new device you'll install. Consider a situation where you're using a device for which you already have a driver installed, has been used elsewhere and has been infected. The device is plugged in and the user gets a pop-up saying that it needs to install the driver for the device to work. The user will simply assume that the driver somehow got corrupt and will gladly put in the password to get the pop-up off his face.
A valid argument. Perhaps why the idea hasn't been implemented.
