Yes, it's hard to get all the MAC+PHY parameters right but I don't think
that this would really improve it. Instead, we should provide a set of
for-dummies configuration functions to do this right for each standard
but allow users to go and tweak them themselves if they feel inclined to
try weird combinations.
