A DVB app probably just needs to know "What devices are capable of tuning to channel XYZ?". The API could answer this the same way as it would tune to channel XYZ, just without actually doing it. Try-before-you-buy. This would also give maximum flexibility to the driver, as a device that supports some -S2 features could offer these, or a device that has known bugs on some tuning modes could also deny these. Non-standard modes could be offered without requiring yet another FE_CAN_XYZ.
