Lets start by defining the interface to be seen by user space
such as vlan editing/popping/pushing etc. Then i will help you
build it slowly until you are comfortable with moving with it.

As a matter of fact, lets talk offline so we dont add more noise
to the list; you can always post the RFC to the list when you are
ready.

cheers,
