I can only speak for EPSON scanners, and they are supported through
the SBP-2 interface (I actually implmemented this support in SBP-2=20
quite some time ago, but have not used it in any recent kernel
so I don't know how good the support is these days).

I would imagine that a scanner that has both a SCSI interface and
an IEEE1392 interface would use the SBP-2 protocol. This would then
require only one driver for the SCSI side and the SBP-2 support
would be there automatically.
