Hi Johannes -
Sure the footprint is nothing to speak of and it just exposes flags
there already supported using radiotap flags already existing.
I didn't think of a use for it but if the original flag has any use then
no doubt it can be used by the injection path by some enterprising soul.
(Sorry for late reply, travelling)
