Ok.

Ok. (But let me make unhappy noise, because these rules are
inconsistent across kernel.)

Ok.

ex-development message ;-).

(Plus of course question is "what is link validation".)

Ok, let me play with this one. Solution you are suggesting is to make
a custom harndler that only passes certain data through, right?

I may have patches for that. Let me check.

Not any more.

Ok.

Do we actually have a flag here? We already have .function, so this
looks like a duplicate.

Ok.

Ok, I guess we can do that for symetry.

Hmm. I believe the rest of the driver is quite useful in understanding
this. Ok, lets get the discussion started.

Ok.
