good one ;)

We know that we need such or similar feature for firmware updates where
we have to essentially shutdown oFono from driving the modem for a
period of time. The details are not 100% clear. For firmware updates
this has to be a D-Bus method, actually D-Bus property on the modem
interface.

In theory we can even extend this to do this internally as well. So that
an oFono plugin could lock down the modem. Things we clearly have to
figure out at some point.

Because we haven't had any hardware that does this so far. You will only
see code in oFono once we had hardware in our hands that is able of
doing this and we know how to drive it.

Essentially the oFono mailing list is a better place for such a
discussion.

Any chance you guys could add Renesas Modem support to oFono and then us
some samples?
