I suppose. I guess that's "linux,default-trigger"? Confusingly,
there's also "default-state" in the common bindings, but it's only
supported for a handful of drivers.

Downside: IIUC, this will no longer reflect in the UCI configuration,
and so it's less obvious how to override things. Especially when, like
the TP-Link version, you have 18 (!!) LEDs (or, 6 x 3-color LEDs), and
you have to guess as to which ones to override. But I can live with
that if that's deemed better.

Sure. What do you think would be better? For ASUS, it's only a single
(set of) LEDs, so maybe I could go with "{red,green,blue}:status"
naming like I see on some others.

But how about TP-Link? There are 6 x 3-color LEDs strung in a ring
around the top. There's not really any particular function assigned to
them, and there isn't much visual separation between them (they
overlap in a sort of gradient). So, "{red,green,blue}:status{0..5}"?
Or "{red,green,blue}:ring{0..5}"?

There are some photos here, if you need inspiration:
