100% agree...  That's always been part of the plan, just that other
cleanups were more pressing and time always runs out.

IMHO 'libertas' is too long as a prefix for stuff, and replacing wlan_
with libertas_ is going to screw up spacing everywhere.  So, any
objections to, as part of the longer-term plan, replace the usage of
'libertas_' and 'wlan_' with the prefix "lts"?  Would look like:

wlan_set_essid -> lts_set_essid
wlan_private -> lts_private
etc

(I don't really like 'lbs' personally but I'm not that strongly against
it)
