Oh, it is there already! Must have been too busy to notice that :/

Yeah, I noticed that too recently, we use selections on video nodes 
in some drivers and media-ctl can be only used for subdevs. I'll try
to find some time to add selection ioctls support to v4l2-ctl first,
perhaps this weekend.

No, I haven't used it for a while. I know from the last run I need to
add G/S_PRIORITY support in one of the drivers. :)

I'm going to give it a try, however I'm going to need to deal with 
more and more media controller nodes. For example the fimc-lite
camera host driver I posted recently can be used with media controller
API only, I set only V4L2_CAP_STREAMING at the video node, as it was 
agreed previously. I assume some support for media controller API 
needs to be added to v4l2-compliance as well ?
