But that's an interesting (and important) limitation to raise.

I have no plans to do it either, but I think it would be rather simple to later add support for setting frequency sampling since we only need to add a sysfs entry (with IIO_CHAN_INFO_SAMP_FREQ) that does not exist yet. Don't you think? Am I missing something?
