I'm adding a similar packet header generator for async (PDU-based) packets. The concept is similar with a default base class that you'd overload for your own purposes for packet formatting. I'll be documenting this behavior more in the blocks themselves, and this should eventually become the basis for another level of our tutorials. I have it working here in simulation, but I know there's going to be some trouble going over the air. I suspect I'll have something that's is worth sharing and reasonably documented early next week.
