User desires aren't exactly my specialty.  I just know the ntrig windows control
panel gives the user that control with cute little radio buttons.

Would it be cleaner to expose the control with an ioctrl or some other mechanism?

I do have user space tools for mode and calibration, but that requires unbinding
the device, and just seems sloppier.  But if this really is inappropriate to add
the sysfs nodes, at least there's still some solution.

Since you brought it up, I am thinking of removing some of the other nodes soon.
 I've learned the physical and logical ranges are already exposed both through
the event nodes and debugfs.  Also, I have better filtering that so far seems
not to need as many parameters so I should be able to remove those nodes as well.

Still learning,
Rafi
