The primary use case that I'm aware of for bonding with wireless
devices is in active-backup mode, paired with an ethernet adapter set as
the bonding "primary" device. I think this is the case that absolutely
should just work. I don't think bonding cares (or should care) about
(a) - (c) for this use.
Your point (b) suggests that there are use cases other than the
above; I'm unfamiliar with any use other than wifi + ethernet, can you
elaborate?
