Hi Clemens, I'm the one responsible for this driver, and the features that are added by now are pretty basical. Currently I'm a bit absorbed by other higher priority tasks, so I haven’t been able to update the driver as fast as I would want. We are working towards enhancing the driver so most of the features be available, but if you have some enhancement suggestion, I'll invite you to do so. I appreciate your time.
