Just for the record - we discussed this in Ottawa and as I understood it
you seemed not to object as much to P2P-Device as here originally.
In particular, we discussed the fact that P2P-Device can share MAC
addresses with the regular interface, but also from a 'foreign'
interface (i.e. a different NIC supporting e.g. different bands).
I'll drop all of this for now, at least until you investigate P2P-Device
support more thoroughly.
