Hm, I think we were kind of going somewhere with the ethtool/nl attribute encapsulation idea. You seem to have ignored those comments on v7 and reposted v8 a day after. I think we should explore the nesting further. The only obstacle is that ethtool netlink conversion is not yet finished, but that's just a simple matter of programming. Do you disagree with that direction? Please comment.
