What is WCONF_CMD_NICK for?
Just for users convenience, like the nick in WE.
Is it really useful?
No :)
Is the point here to support all current WEXT functionality?
It probably should be. For compatibility, we will likely need code
to translate the WEXT ioctls to the netlink stuff. The ioctl to
change the nickname will need someplace to go. So, useless or not,
I think the WCONF_CMD_NICK is appropriate.
I have never used this myself and don't know anyone who did..
The compat ioctl can simply return unimplemented.
