It could be considered like this given the pace at which Wireless
evolves around. Basically, if you have a WiFi NIC which works in
2.4, there is no reason for it to break tomorrow. However if yours
is not supported, don't hope to see it added later. Some exotic
drivers may sometimes be found in embedded distros such as OpenWrt
though.
