Maybe this could happen once most users have moved to WE-18.. If there
is need to support older kernel versions, one will have to implement
private ioctls (etc.) to configure WPA or get all users patching their
kernels which is not really going to happen. In other words, this is
going to take some time, but will hopefully happen at some point.
