    This is on the TODO list. It shouldn't be that hard to add a
    'translation' element to p80211.o that would convert between the Wireless
    Extensions ioctl's and the message format sent/received by wlanctl-ng.

    The only tricky part would be tracking state information. I have looked
    at Wireless Extensions lately so I don't know what it assumes about NIC &
    connection state.
