Good question. I guess we could have it, though I'm not sure we'd have
any mechanics to actually _use_ such a thing right now? Something, say
hostapd (?) would have to promise it's actually outdoors?

More information doesn't hurt and I don't mind adding it at all, but I
do think we'd probably not be able to use it at this time.

Or we could add it to the db.txt file but ignore it in parsing now and
skip the band for the binary for now?

The thing is I don't think we have a good way to say "older kernel skips
this range" - or perhaps we set the NO_IR flag so older kernel cannot
use it but then allow OUTDOOR_ONLY to override that given some
conditions?
