While wpa_supplicant is certainly the main client for stuff directly related to setting up a connection, there are quite a few other users of general WE calls to pull information out of the card, or to receive scan events.
How about we just ditch iwconfig completely and move on to wpa_supplicant/wpa_cli as our next userspace application with nl80211/cg80211 as our new API for usersapce-->kernel communication? As you point out, wpa_supplicant already does a lot for us -- and several distributions already rely on it. Some work is required but I think its worth it. If we do a complete move from WE to nl80211 it would be transparent to the users too.
