Yes, you understood it right. For now it's only the option to manually set fan
speed.

That's not impossible, and there's an API called Overdrive6 that's both
accessible to Windows and Linux (only closed source driver though). Mmiotracing
those calls (yeah, actually that thing you mentioned - setting
temperature<-->speed pairs) can lead to implementing this behaviour in
open-sorce driver. Alex said he can provide some patches for me to start with,
let's see if it will cover these demands.
