The r8169 driver which is in the kernel should have the same
functionality.

It does indeed, but I think this support was only added recently; I believe
the first kernel version to support it was 2.6.19. Support is certainly in
the 2.6.20-rc kernels, as I'm using it.

Yes, but what's the benefit if we would add r1000 in 2.6.21?

No, it shouldn't and it hasn't. RTL8168 and RTL8167 support was added in
2.6.19.
